Inline draft comments I really like the forum editor. Unfortunately, I don’t end up writing posts in it very much as I almost always ask for feedback and reviewers can not easily add their suggestions.
Google doc comments are probably the gold standard here.
LW have been working hard on this, and are still ironing out the bugs. When it’s more production-ready, the EA Forum devs will figure out how we might want to enable it (ex. we might want some different functionality here).
If you’re excited for collaborative editing, I recommend you beta test it on LW and give them lots of feedback! :) That will help improve both forums.

Strong +1 the few times I have drafted a post in the forum editor i’ve then copypasted it into a gdoc to get comments.
I remember a while ago this was in the LW feature pipeline, not sure if it still is?
I think it’s in beta.
(As you know better than me, I guess there’s several principled and mundane reasons why a LW feature won’t make it to the forum for a while).
Update:
From the post:
Woah, multiple users can write a doc at once? I think that’s hard and impressive to achieve.
