It's been almost a week since I first posted this thread, and I really want to get this sorted. The problem is that the abusefilter extension is very obscure and not much used (thankfully). It is unlikely that more than 5000 wikias actually use it, and most of those would likely be WAM Level wikis. Anyway, the point is that for these kinds of obscure features you're better off simply trying to find it using a search engine or actually asking in mediawiki forums. Those users are better equipped to provide answers as Wikimedia uses the extension extensively. A simple search found this exact topic and solution:

Abusefilter AND visualEditor AND warning

As one of the search result links shows, this bug has already been found and fixed by WMF VisualEditor developers (years ago), and will only be fixed if Wikia deems it useful to backport the fix, fix it on their own, or update their Visual Editor version.
