Spell check is, apparently, very difficult to implement. Assuming that's not possible for a while I'd like to see the ability to edit entries. So you might add something spelled incorrectly, I would come along and spot the error, and then edit it. That's the easier mechanism.

It's so fraught, however. What if person A posts a question, person B posts an answer, then person A modifies their question in a way such that B's answer no longer makes sense, etc. etc.

I've yet to come across a forum (of which Gwagle is a variant, at heart) which allows modification post-submission.

Let's focus on the big picture.

I thought about modification long and hard - what if someone posts a factually incorect or downright dangerous post - yes you can point it ot but I agree you shouldnt be allowed to edit - after all if you edit something that has already been replied to then that reply is then wrong - I agree lets focus on the bigger picture (can always use google bar to spell check)
