[...] How about an "edit" button on the preview page?

How about an automatic edit box below the preview,

DA: would that be a problem/annoyance for really long posts, since the server
is basically sending two copies of the posting back to the client?

... with a pair of buttons on
the left (preview and post) and a cancel button on the right (just like the
FTX page editing thingie but with different button labels)?  That way you
could just immediately start making edits if you needed to, and wouldn't have
to click an explicit "Edit" button.  And all three buttons would appear as
soon as you hit "Reply" so that you could jump straight to "Post" without
having to "Preview" if you didn't want to preview (analagous to "Save" and
"Preview" in the page thingie).   ?

Sounds good, I think.
