Description
Since there is no way to preview a message (yet! it would be for another feature request), I end up editing my messages many times. And each time, it adds a line in the activity log.
One solution (besides being able to preview the message) could be to add the activity log item only if the last editing was done more than a few hours or a day before... It could be configurable but I don't think it would be very useful though. Let's say it could be configurable by modifying the code :)
I really think we should have a preview feature. Especially for people who are using Textile code in their messages it would be quite handy to be able to see what your marked up text looks like before submitting it.
It would make sense indeed to add first the preview and then this one.
Anyway, for this one, does 15 minutes sound like a good time to ignore the edits?
I was thinking about that and I think that if a message is edited *by the same person* less than 15 minutes after the creation or last edit, it shouldn't be added to the Application Logs.
The number of minutes should be added as a config_option.
I suppose it should be universal to all objects, rather than specific to each kind of object. Would there be any reason why one would want to add all the edits for files but not messages (for example) actually?
