Sound reasonable... But as we try to get a piece of productive software, honestly I do not feel good with terms like "Intuitively" and "reasonable"... ;) In my opinion the source of this (miss)behaviour should be tracked down. Thus I filed a bug report at sf.net:

You should never assume that the network you are using is stable and always produces desired results. It can be down to everything, like authentication problems, caching problems at wikimedia or network issues.
Sure, it might be a real problem, but it's most probably on the side of MediaWiki (or actually Wikimedia installation) rather than the framework.
