Added link to related question, added comments tag
  • When editing a comment, there is no option to cancel the edit without refreshing the page. There is a "Post" button but no way to discard the edit and return to the standard view without a page refresh (to my knowledge). I've tried hitting `Esc` but this also does not cancel the comment edit.

Cancelling / discarding a comment edit
When editing a comment, there is no option to cancel the edit without refreshing the page. There is a "Post" button but no way to discard the edit and return to the standard view without a page refresh (to my knowledge). I've tried hitting `Esc` but this also does not cancel the comment edit.
