Let's assume I am making a trope (Rolling Updates as usual) Alice is coming up with an example, and I have to add it.

Here's how I do it.
1. Open the edit page on new tab, because editing the description hides the comments.
2. Press "Edit" on each of the examples so that I am able to copy the markup also
3. Copy them manually.
4. Paste to the new tab (switching between the tabs each time)
5. Save.
6. Close the absolutely useless from now on tab.
What am I going to do instead:
1. Scream in rage, punch air.
What should be done:
1. Description should be editable without hiding the comments. Notice how comments are replaced with an edit box and not occupying a new tab
2. There should be a button near any comment that, if pressed, copies all the content of the comment, markup included, to the clipboard.
