Rejected suggested edit changes what is listed as the original text

I viewed a rejected suggested edit, and then made an edit of my own to the same post. I then viewed the rejected suggested edit again, and noticed that the "before" content (the left hand side) included my changes, even though the suggested edit was rejected before I made my changes.
