Currently in AbuseFilter, doing an action that triggers a warning keeps one on the edit page, but their version that they tried to save is shown in the edit box. Requesting that an interface like edit conflicts be used so that they may re-modify the original text if they so wish without needing to refresh the page (have a notice saying the original text is on top, their changed text on the bottom, and only the top will take effect when saved -- basically the same interface used for an edit conflict, just with the AbuseFilter warning prepended to it).

Might be more sensible to make the change in core so it happens with SpamBlacklist et al too.
Marking this bug as Lowest priority. I've done this in a batch to (usually enhancement request) bugs where: * It is not clear that this bug should be fixed. * It is not clear how to fix this bug. * There are difficulties or complications in fixing this bug, which are not justified by the importance of the bug. * This is an extremely minor bug that could not be fixed in a few lines of code. If you're interested in having one of these bugs fixed, your best bet is to write the patch yourself.
