Thread:Feedback/Autosignatures exacerbate the editing while logged out problem./Gmaxwell

I don't agree that it should be editable: The signature style should really be a *viewer* preference. I like it when signature have links to contribs, for example, but I'm at the whim of people setting their sig that way. Although I favour personalization… randomly linked up sigs are a usability problem.

Displaying the sig OTOH would be a great thing, it could just be displayed under the edit box as it will be displayed on the post… that will make it less likely for you to edit logged out and reduce confusion regarding the eliminated need to manually sign.
