Comment (by azaozz):

 We could put the warning at the top but from UX point of view it has to be
 highly visible. That's why it is a double warning in the patch, the JS
 `alert()` stops the user from typing and the `<div class="error"...` keeps
 reminding them that somebody else has the same post open for editing.

 In any case we would need some UX feedback before committing.
