A request to our grumpy editor: will we see editing of comments for spelling/other mistakes in the site at some point? It's pretty annoying to see these correction posts (and i've had to do those myself as well in the past).

Facebook solved the "historical revisionism" problem with editing in a really nice way: if you edit a post, the old version is just invisible, and it's still accessible via a "edited/show edition history" button/link.
