Currently it’s possible to edit the post content before accepting a post in the moderation queue, but not its title. Is there a reason for this, or would it make sense to implement this?

In our case we have very specific rules for how to formulate the title (e.g. must be formulated as a question), which only about half of our users seem to get…

I can of course do edits to the post after approving it, but it’s kind of a pain. And especially users with mailing list mode enabled might get the email before I have time to do the edits.

Yes I believe @watchmanmonitor has requested this multiple times.
