Question previews were added after some user requests; we'd been planning to eventually do a fancier "expand in place" design where you could use a control to see the beginning of the question and a summary of answers and then collapse it again, but that will take more time and in the meantime we could add fixed post previews without the complexity of the other stuff. Should we add a user preference for it? Or maybe a user preference for the size of the preview, 0 to disable, like the per-community setting? (Yes, the preview can be configured; let us know on per-community metas if you want to change the character count.)
I also noticed that the font size for the title increased with this change, which I don't think was intentional. I've filed an issue for the size change.
