A number of times over the last year I've seen documentation bugs
reported I could fix myself with the online editor. Only to find when
attempting to do so, that they were blocked by a previous edit that has
not been commited as a patch. A good example of this is a recent bug
report:
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65370
I beleive this is the second time a similar comment has been made on
this page and I have found the page still blocked by edits made by an
anonymous user 24488.

Is there any way that older saved edits can either be reviewed and
commited/dropped or failing that just dropped after a reasonable amount
of time has passed.

I believe in most cases that the user making these edits has not
realised that saving them does not automatically commit and that they
need to make a separate patch for that to happen.
