We do have a 'preview' button. I expect it would merely train people to
preview their work more.
Perhaps. It could also easily have the effect of getting them
irritated and leave. "Let's make this wonderful article.... Ready,
submit." "Oops, I made a typo... Let's correct it." "You have
already
made an edit this minute." "Okay, wait a minute... Let's load this
other website in the meantime." "Ah, finally... Oooh... Another typo."
"You have already made an edit this minute." "Ah well, if they don't
want me, that's their problem. Let's go to that other cool website."
