The "pick a section" step allows to select the section you want to translate from an article. Although the emphasis is on sections missing, it is also possible to select sections that are already present in the translated article (to expand their contents or replace them). However, this is not possible for the lead section.

This ticket proposes to include the option to select the lead section as part of the "Section present in <language-name>". The section will be listed as:

• "(Top)" as title, to make it consistent with the New Vector term used in the table of contents.
• An excerpt of the initial text of the page in the target language is used as description (only one line of text, cropped with ellipsis). This intended to clarify what this special section is really about by exemplifying it since the terms to refer to the lead section may not be widely known.

Although most of the time articles in both languages will have the lead section, the system should be able to handle the case where the source language ha a lead section but the article in the target language does not have one (e.g., only consist of sections). In such case, the lead section option will appear in the "Section missing in ,language-name>" and will include a description with an excerpt from the source article instead.
