I often get aware of the mistakes I made when posting a KudoZ answer or a forum comment only after I hit the "send" button and see the text in all its beauty. So I add an "errata corrige" by inserting a note (KudoZ) or I use the edit button (fora). It's a bit annoying since a lot of mistakes, in my opinion, could be avoided by simply offering a preview mode. WYSIWYG

An on-line spell checker for non-native English speakers would help too when posting to the English fora.

For forum posts, a preview would be the most important improvement I can currently think of.

As far as I know, the preview is already there for KudoZ questions.

I'm a native English speaker and it would help me too, particularly in KudoZ answers, where I often make typing errors.
