Hello everybody!

**What I want:** See who - apart from me - is using the “Reply” dialog box to write a reply to a particular topic. Like, on Quora, whenever I am browsing a question, I can also see people who are writing an answer to it.

**Why I want this:** Often, it happens that I post a reply to a topic only to discover that some other person has _already_ written the _same response_ 5-10 seconds ago. Sometimes, it also happens that the other person posts his/her reply while I am still writing my reply, and when I notice it, I am already half way through writing my reply and then I have to abandon my reply (which doesn’t feel really good ☹)

**Question:** Can this feature be implemented? 🙂

Thanks!

EDIT: [Quick link](https://meta.discourse.org/t/see-who-all-are-writing-replies-to-a-topic/38884/34) to a post detailing this feature so that will probably sort any concern that you might be having on the first glance 🙂
