Editing forum replies and posting attachments

Is it possible to edit a forum reply after you have posted it?

Also is it possible to add an attachment to a reply?

I can see these two things are possible for posts that you created but it doesn't appear possible when replying to posts that other users created.

It would be great to be able to edit a forum reply. Even though the reply has a preview feature sometimes i don't notice a typo until much later. And being able to attach files/images would be great as well because sometimes it is easier to answer someone's question with a picture rather than a two page description. :)

Comment editing doesn't seem to be possible on a per-user basis in Drupal. And granting every user admin rights for all comments doesn't seem very prudent.

Comments are fundamentally different to 'nodes' (blog posts, forum topics) in Drupal. That's the reason attachments do not work for comments either.

@Icarus75 Did the link posted by Demeesterroel prove useful?
Will it be possible to add comment editing to the Flukso forums?
There is a lot of double posting where users are posting additional comments to correct what they said in a prior comment. Would be real nice to get editing enabled.
And yes, i just made a boo boo in another thread which reminded me to find out if there had been any progress on this issue. :)
