I started to write up a platform issue for this, but realized I have questions we need community feedback on first:

1. Who should be able to edit the title, beyond those with the Curate ability who already can?  Only the creator, or any participant in the thread?  (We do not have a "suggest edit" mechanism for thread titles and I don't think that would be a priority.)

2. Should there be any limits to when you can edit, like "only in the first hour" or "only if there are no other comments"?  (Assume that we would record late edits visibly, so you could tell that the title changed after the first four comments.)
