working and maintained alternative to o2 anyone?

i'm looking for a working alternative for either the o2 plugin or the p2/o2 theme. is anybody here aware of one?

i think the basic functionality of a frontend edit/post box with link prefetching a la facebook is really underrated, and i hope maybe somebody has come across that, or could post here their strategies how to implement such a functionality via a plugin or a theme.

Start with issue #173 and review its six comments for the requested alternative to the o2 plugin or p2/o2 theme. No source file, test, entry point, or concrete acceptance criteria are identified; the work is not complete until a maintained implementation strategy and its required functionality are defined.
