Saving a post is an action taken upon a post. We already have a button to do said action.
Previewing is something you can do with a post, but it does not affect the post at all. The buttons at the bottom are for updating a post; previewing is just "getting" a post. I think having the save prompter makes sense, and would be happy to implement it in the current link. In fact, that's probably the best solution: 1) Keep the current link position, but always have it there. 2) If clicked for an unsaved post, prompt to save first. In that situation, I don't see any need for FAT and recommend against using it. ~Arthus On May 22, 2009, at 4:49 PM, Owen Winkler wrote: > > Arthus Erea wrote: >> Conceptually, I am against moving the preview link into a button at >> the >> bottom. >> >> The bottom buttons are /actions/.
