Description: The content textarea in wiki edition mode is properly labelled with an item in the editMeta container.
There is no such label when editing a paragraph of the content with the default edit mode being wiki.
This UI can be found by clicking on the pen icons in view mode after setting up the right Admin config. This admin configuration is not the default XS, but it's the default one used in docker tests.

It seems that in these conditions, the `editmeta.vm` template is not called while it should have been.

Note that there even is a skiplink targeting the `#editMeta` here, that doesn't work in this use case...

This bug was first found by accessibility automatic tests. This is responsible for 7 failures of the `label` rule in flamingo-skin-docker WCAG tests.
