I don't really think that editing a post is such a great thing. Thinking
out loud here...how would you know that a post you'd already read had been
updated? The best thing would probably be to repost it, at which point,
we might as well just repost. It's not that hard to copy and paste and
re-edit.
Personally, I don't mind the word wrap so much, but the increased text box
size is *very* nice. The top of my wish list is a preview feature. I don't
think that any delay or extra button or whatever is going to prevent that
many mistakes, although putting a preview button before the send button would
probably save a few people. A delay is a bad idea. I suspect that it will
cause lots of complaining and double posting.
