I do like this approach, and I'd love to see some tests.
I really believe that is good to do tests and experiments, as we are
sometimes convinced by things that are not really proven.

A 3 step validation passage as you suggest could maybe be easy enough for
new users and casual readers, and we could gain some validations we could
not have had otherwise.


I also would like to repeat my question about the Visual Editor: are we
close tho that or nobody is working on it?
