Craig L Russell commented on WHIMSY-404:
----------------------------------------
It looks like we are in agreement that the (refresh) button handler would be an
appropriate locus for action. Since this affects all users, not just the user
that committed the error.
At the point where the handler detects an errant character, it should determine
where the character is and notify the appropriate group that there was a
problem. If it is in a project report, the error was most probably introduced
by the project, and the project private mail list would be good to include on a
message to:board, cc:private@project that an error was detected. If the error
was anywhere else, probably just to:board is sufficient.
I'm not sure that any dialog with the user is needed. But if it is, perhaps a
dialog with the proposed diff and (cancel) or (confirm) buttons would be
suitable.
This situation has only happened twice that I can recall, and in both cases
simply deleting the erroneous characters was appropriate. Is there a case that
would require additional user action?
