That is part of the stuff kept in memory. So it has to have the re-edit
in the same OLX session as the original edit. Happens all the time here.

I just tried it again too, a different message with quite a few specials,
mostly names of things and some abbreviations. Ked about 8. Re-edited it
to add a para on the end with a more pungent remark than usual, it never
complained about anything except another special in the new para.

It has some quite clever trick to work out whats been Ked too in a
particular message, it doesnt appear to get thrown by edits up in
the message proper or anything. Never done any careful tests on what
it keeps, its likely just a list of Ked words by particular message.
So the layout stuff doesnt matter a damn.
