How do I reproduce this? What browser, view mode, etc.? I don't think I do anything fancy with mouse events...

Also, oauth?
There is no way I would register an account to make a post unless I
was *really* motivated.
It may be that we have lost potential participants because they
clicked away from the page within seconds of realising there was no
oauth (I definitely would).

What gave you the impression that you have to register an account in order to post? The front page now explicitly says that you don't need an account to post.

It's doable but just seems a little overkill to me. Every time I looked into implementing OAuth I was swamped by how overly complicated it was (or maybe I just never found a succint-enough description).

How feasible is it to add code formatting for the web interface?

Win8.1, Chrome latest, nothing special about the view configuration. Here is a link: http://beta.forum.dlang.org/post/poefipvtjbcpnkopktja@forum.dlang.org I don't know if this link is special... just click on the screen somewhere and watch it bounce around.

Not sure what you mean. Do you mean syntax highlighting for D code?

If you mean the rewrapping issues with forum.dlang.org, those should be fixed now. Code (and other text with hard line breaks) should be sent and displayed as-is.

Sorry if this question has been raised but is the reason for the inability to edit posts? Will be this feature implemented sometime?

Posts are not editable because once sent, they are relayed to the NNTP server, mailing lists, and users' email inboxes.

> Will be this feature implemented sometime?

Only when it becomes possible to edit a sent email.

Syntax highlighting is always nice, but yeah, I more meant the line wrapping issues.
