Details

I would like a brief edit window to be made available for Bugzilla comments.

Similar to Metafilter's 5-minute edit window, I propose the following functionality. When you comment in a bug and click "submit".

- An option is presented to you, that you can edit your comment within the next minute.

- If you do nothing or close the window, after a minute all the mail goes out and everything else is as usual.

- If you do click the edit button, the mail doesn't go out, and you have three minutes to edit your comment and commit the changes.

- At the end of three minutes, whatever is committed at that point goes out in the email, and the comment is locked.

Upshot of all this is that users can clear up typos before the emails go out, but that people using Bugzilla as they have in the past will notice very little difference.
