The ability to edit at least for a limited time would be nice. (I just corrected two typos)(make that three).

I do proofread, every time, and still sometimes mistakes do get through. I type very fast, probably over 60 words a minute, but after correcting mistakes I might get 20 words a minute. And I make plenty, even after 25 years of typing on a regular basis.

So I’d like to see the capability to edit, at least for a few minutes. As is, I have to either ignore a typo or post a correction, which eats up more bandwidth.

Here’s a hint:

When you are looking at the preview and you see a typo, fix it right away and then go back and proofread the preview again. You do this again and again until it’s all fixed.

Trying to remember all the typos you want to fix so you can save time by fixing them in one trip is what causes them to appear carved in stone forever.
