Comment:

 The gist here is "user B takes over post editing unexpectedly from user A"
 while A is typing. The only way to fix this would be to change "Take over"
 to "Request to take over" and them wait for a response, etc.

 However we decided (at a dev chat) to not deal with the courtesies
 involved in taking over post editing for now. In nearly all cases the
 users would communicate with each other before taking over, but we are not
 preventing them if they decide to (be rude) boot somebody unexpectedly.
