I've long wanted a node just for "post a new SoPW" and to have your most recent "preview" saved (just in case your computer crashes).

The drop-down for which section to post to would only work for the sections that have the same DB schema (those that nodes can currently be moved between). I'd never considered that idea before, and it is a good one.

tjh, having more than one preview saved means that you have to pick which slot you want the current preview saved into. It greatly complicates the interface. With a single saved preview, the interface is simply one new button "load most recent preview". If you want to save more than one preview, then simply cut-n-paste the node contents somewhere that already has interfaces designed for dealing with naming items you want to save (such as a file system).

I wouldn't use the most recent preview as a way to save something I'm working on over a long period of time. I'd save that to a real file and use a real editor on it. I'd want a "most recent preview" just for emergencies.

djantzen, on the several occasions when "separate Perl 5 SoPW from Perl 6 SoPW" has come up in the past, my read was that the consensus was "we don't need a new section". I certainly don't think we need new sections.
