not sure how long. It's intended for people who want to fix minor things like typos, etc.


ETA: I can see your history at the bottom of the post. What I wrote about is about the "red" edit notice at the top of a post

It took a while *cough* like years *cough*, but now if you edit soon enough no more of that "fire engine red" alert color!
