Can something - perhaps a faint background color or an outline - be added to
make clear when one is in editing mode?
Copied from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback#Make_editing_view_more_distinctive_from_article
I like the visual editor, and I predict that more people will edit WP when it's
introduced. However, there is one thing that bugs me: After I clicked the
"Edit" Tab, the view of the article does change only slightly - so sometimes I
do not know that I am already editing, especially when I scroll down the
article. I'd suggest a visual hint: A modal popup, a slim outline of the
editing area or a more distinctive design of the tool bar, for example. Mateng

Hear, hear! Perhaps a (faint) background colour? There needs to be some visual
clue. JohnCD (talk) 12:17, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
