Extra Buttons

When Wikieditor is installed, There is two buttons to Publish the post, Two buttons to cancel it and two fields to declare edit summary.

To avoid confusion, It is better to remove the old buttons while WikiEditor is installed.

That "Publish" feature seems totally undocumented, save for this comment in WikiEditor.php:

  // Adds a button and dialog for step-by-step publishing

I can't imagine why anyone would use it.

When you click Publish, the dialog that comes up is supposed to copy the settings from the main "Edit summary", "Minor edit", and "Watch this page" controls [1]. But this doesn't appear to work correctly.
