Advantages of the proposal (in no specific order):
* The editlink is now on the place where there are no doubts
of what section it belongs to (the reliability of this can be yet higher
when changing the label from "edit" to "edit the following section"
or something like that)
Actually, I had no idea whether the links in the 'final proposal' belonged
to the paragraph above, or the paragraph below.
To me, it would be better if they went alongside the section head, and
ideally there would be some sort of javascripting to highlight the area they
apply to, to make it doubly clear.
I have posted a crude UI mock-up [1] of how I would envisage the edit links
working. The icon (an 'e' in a circle) is just a crude example - in
practice we would want something a lot nicer and non-language-specific. The
blue highlighting in the mock-up indicates how we could highlight the
section to be edited when the mouse moves over the link.
