No preview on Update of a Node?...

Esteemed Guardians,

I was just updating a node and noticed (again) that although there is a Previewoption (indeed, not an optional option) before posting a root node there is no Preview capability when an author Updates a node.

Was this consciously considered and omitted? Or just omitted because not consciously considered? (Or a third option...)

This has been asked before. See Preview button on updated own posts? for discussion and a helpful suggestion.	[reply]

And also Preview for Node Updates?. I guess this now qualifies as a FAQ. Between the mind which plans and the hands which build, there must be a mediator... and this mediator must be the heart.	[reply]

Oh how embarrassing. As penance, I shall rub ash into my robes and shuffle round the courtyard in the snow this lunch time, while all around may point at me and cry "Faaaarrrkk!! Faaaarrkk!!" This signature for rent.	[reply]

not an optional option Technically it is~ Regarding the lack of preview feature, I have also noticed this and it has been a peeve of mine. (I forgot I could post a node stating so, though. Thanks for bringing this up, jvector.) And you didn't even know bears could type.	[reply]
