[wp-testers] Giving blog drafts their own page..

[David Herren]

I llke this idea as well, especially for a busy site, but I do want  
to point out a possible ramification. If you remove drafts from the  
"primary" posts page, you risk even more orphans. One of the things I  
constantly have to do on one of the sites I manage is go in and  
delete dozens of drafts of old posts that user _think_ they've  
posted, but have only clicked save. As it is, they often ask me where  
their posts have gone, and that's with the list of drafts at the top  
of the page.

Perhaps a separate page for drafts, coupled with a "floating" CSS  
reminder of any drafts as the user enters the posting area of the  
admin interface?
