User would like the edit link to be removed for anyone who is not first given permission to edit the post.
Currently, when you create a post the link to you draft can be shared. Anyone who has access to that link can then edit the post.
I believe this is intentional but can see the point of having specific permissions like you have when sharing a google doc.

This feature request is more like a request solving a bug than a new feature, so I think you can file this as an issue :) It seems straightforward.
Sounds good. Thanks Lisa.
