Here's a simple idea we can implement rather quickly. Say a
user is
browsing https://dlang.org/builtin.html and find a typo. They
press a
button labeled "Fix typo". That opens
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dlang.org/edit/master/builtin.dd.
From there people can edit the source file to fix the typo
and create a
PR, all without leaving the browser or building the
documentation.
We have this already. Top right corner, "Improve this page".
People are
using the feature occasionally.
Yes, in fact, core developers use this too.
It's actually quite a bit more convenient than doing stuff
locally.

I'm a D user and forum lurker, not a contributor. I have used
this feature several times in the past and it was seamless and
easy each time. For small typos/one-liners it takes <5 minutes to
edit changes and submit the PR.
