Feedback ยท Keyboard shortcut for editing a post (accepted)

I want to be able to edit my last post with a key press, possibly repeating the same keypress to switch to editing the post before that, or the post before that, and so on.

I suggest something like UP or SHIFT+UP should edit last - if and only if your message entry box is currently empty - and if I keep pressing it without actually doing anything else, it'll go up further to previous messages I sent.

This would almost certtainly need in place editing of roleplay posts (litphoria.com) because a keyboard shortcut that leaves the page entirely to go to the edit page would be terrible.

Also it really shouldn't be as easy to trigger as "UP".

A lot of services I use have it bound to UP - just that your message field has to be empty if you want to edit something. (Because otherwise you'd be overwriting what you're writing all the time, which would be bad.)

Actually yeah I wasn't thinking of the empty message thing. That's not bad.

Yeah it would be totally awful if UP worked aboslutely any time, even while you were halfway through writing a post. I edited the suggestion to make that bit clearer. :)
