The site is easier to use without edit boxes surrounding every example - it puts a lot of stuff in the way of the content you're actually looking for; they get in the way. While it's a cool little feature to have, it's not essential to the site's main purpose, namely, presenting the documentation in an easy to read fashion. So the upsides of being fully functional (technically easy, btw, the main thing is just a standard html form, and with the iframe target, it'd do an inline submit without script too, no changes) has to weighed against the downside of being cluttered. With the script, it's possible to have the best of both worlds. But, without the script, I just don't feel it's worth it. Toys shouldn't get in the way of the main goal.
