There should be a bread crumb trial in the top-right that looks 
something like:

... >> trunk >> content >> licenses >> LICENSE-2.0.txt

Click on "licenses" to get a directory listing and then 
"LICENSE-2.0.mdtext" to get back to the file in question.

HTH,

Mark

Huh: I don't know how to get back to editing the wrapper page I just
edited. When I click on the CMS bug, I just get the license itself, not the
text around it.

+1. If we want to add some text maybe something like:

"... a NOTICE file as described in section 4 of the License."
