One idea would be to instead delete the old post and create a new one,
but that can only work as long as there are no replies to that message,
yet, or it will break threading. Also, there is also no notification
mechanism for deleted messages and it introduces race-conditions with
other posters who might be replying to the original post, so this also
won't be pretty either.

Even that is better than nothing. :) Could we make it editable as long as
there are no replies?

Not really editable, because NNTP readers would never notice an edit,
only deleted posts once it is actually loaded. But I'll create a ticket
to allow deleting posts as long as nobody has replied (and probably also
as long as it happens within a certain time limit).

Sönke, even that is helpful! So please implement it. :)
