Rough but running code of BGB is ready, and Andrea can test it to find bugs
and/or drawbacks by now, if he likes.

To lower the risk of a nonsense-click, BGB should pop out after some
reasonable delay - something less than the time needed to carefully compare
the page  text and its image. To make simpler to monitor its use, a
standard message could be added to edit, so that BGB edits could be fastly
selected in RecentChanges.
