 * Thanks for such a fast response!
 * This is my problem:
 * I am working on a site that a large number of people will eventually be editing
   occasionally. Creating a user account for all of them would be overkill and would
   quickly become a headache to maintain for the site administrator. I was planning
   to create a handful of different users (with a variety of roles) that the group
   would share.
 * If two people logged in as two different users attempt to edit the same post,
   WordPress (new in 2.5?) handily presents the second user with a warning to avoid
   one person overwriting another’s modifications. Unfortunately if two people were
   to log in as the same user and attempt to do the same, there would be no such
   warning. This means that overwriting could become a bit of a problem in the scenario
   I outlined above.
 * I realise this is a similar question to the one I posed in my first post, but
   is there a work-around to this problem or might you be able to suggest one?
 * Thanks again!
