> Before "Confirmation" but after "Submit", a trick that I found, is to use your mouse to cover all your text and do Alt-C (copy). Then, you go back, and it's still in the box so you can correct it. Don't know why, but it works. If it wasn't there you'd do ALT-v (paste) and the text would appear again. But I've found I don't need this last step. Just copying it is enough for the system to keep it in memory it seems.

FYI, another job on my to-do list is to redo it so that the preview page would have a message box itself, so if you wanted, you could make changes right there and preview it again (or not and just submit it).
So many changes, so little time...
