the useredit approach I'm using over at the librarybook site works
pretty well.  for example, if you go to

    http://effbot.org/librarybook/mailbox.htm

and click "suggest changes" at the bottom, you can edit the page
source, preview the changes, and generate a patch when you're
done, all without signing up or logging in.

(unfortunately, Python's documentation is written in LaTeX, using
a rather advanced tool chain to get from sources to HTML, so the
librarybook approach won't really work "out of the box")
