[pmwiki-users] PreviewChanges: Show only on demand?

Hi All,

http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/PreviewChanges is very useful to
see the changes during complex edits.

But I'm afraid that novice users can be confused by this (seldom used)
information.

And with a large number of diffs, the preview is shifted down so you
have to scroll more.

Therefore I consider either a checkbox or a new button "show diff" in
the edit form.

What do you think about?

Any pitfalls to avoid?

Will it work by simply adding the form element to the EditForm?

BTW: forms.php contains code for "e_resetbutton", does anybody know
what it is good for?

Oliver
