While it would be nice for minor edits to not bump posts, the problem is defining what "minor" is, and leaving it for the person who did the edit to judge. Hopefully, most people won't be subjected to the edit queue eventually, so that's not the answer. I certainly want to know about all edit anyone makes to my posts. Most edits Elsewhere to my posts were to correct spelling and the the like. I have no problem with that. However, there were also too many cases where I wrote something a certain way quite deliberately, and someone else then changed it. The worst kind of edit is where someone "helpfully" inserts a mention of something I purposely left off because I felt it was a detail that was mostly distracting in the large scheme of things. These sites have such low volume that currently a few bumped posts aren't much of a problem. We should leave things as they are now, and revisit this if bumped posts become a problem.
