great!

Actually, I quite like the way the Gemini skin for the edit page replaces 
the reset button with a Cancel button that takes the user back to reading 
the page.

Neat. Would it be possible to map more shortcuts than we have buttons? That 
would allow me to add a list of notes like:

markup shortcut
"what it does"

to a sidebar that doesn't scroll with the page, probably collapsible.

[Save] [Minor Save] [Save&Done], but that's still too repetitive.
how about
Save: [Minor][Major][and keep editing]

That minor change checkbox is frustrating, I always forget to check it, and 
most changes I make are minor anyway (spelling, formating, moving content 
around).

How about replacing/merging the GuiEdit buttons with the QuickReference? 
Probably a better hook for something like it?
