in thread RFC: Edit your posts in a separate page, rather than at the top of a thread.

we should also mitigate duplicate posting...

Sort of a "Whoa, cowboy!" Do you have any ideas on how to do that?

    The 'add' field gets a hidden GUID which, on preview, is used to upsert a row recording the most recent "preview" for each such session. When you post, the new node_id gets recorded in the preview row. Posting when a node_id is already in the preview row either updates the linked node or perhaps offers to.

    Preview rows from a week ago get purged. One day users can reclaim unposted previews.

    - tye        

      are previews cached somewhere currently?
