Does Stack Exchange remember what I used as edit summary last time I edited a post?

I noticed that the edit summary was already set when I edited a post; I expanded the description, and clicked on the "Save Edits" button. I thought I was editing it during the grace period, but it was not so.

I don't find any post that reports the way the edit summary is handled has been changed.

If you begin editing during the grace period, the previous edit summary will be filled in.

If you're then a bit slow to submit your edit and the grace period expires, a new revision will be created.
