in reply to Edit your scratchpad... should be easier to reach

See the thing is, it is a user setting. It's a Column in the User table (nodeid 891 if you have permission).

Now I don't think anyone will have a problem with conceptually separating the editing bit out,as far as I can see, and there were a few stabs at writing this, so it really comes down to somebody writing a scratch pad viewer - (patch) so that a user can edit his own scratch pad from scratch pad viewer.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but making changes takes persuasion, and ain't no greater persuasion than code to do the job.

update: Additionally, simply adding the feature to scratch pad viewer is not the only issue, at few other nodes have to be edited, including faq, user display page ...

    The planned solution is to make the scratchpad a separate node. This work was started long ago. It will reduce database load and simplify lots of aspects of scratchpads like adding a "d/l code" link.
