Scenario:  Change subject of Announcement.

The subject is a link so edit mode is required.  Additionally, if user was going to edit multiple pieces of data at once, this workflow would be relevant.

1) Scenario begins with user in Announcements.

2) Hover message displays after user hovers over "edit" link for 2 seconds.
3) Clicking edit (or using enter on the keyboard) opens the edit overlay.  "Edit" link becomes read-only when overlay opens.

The most frequently edited information (e.g. 80/20 rule) should be available in the overlay by default.  A link to "edit all information" should be available that would display all editable information in the overlay.  In the case of announcements the most commonly edited information is the subject and announcement content. 
4) Cursor is in the first editable field at the end of the current text when overlay opens.  User adds the missing 'c' in the subject and selects save (click or enter on the keyboard).  On save, the overlay closes automatically. 
5) After choosing 'save' changes are saved and overlay closes.  Note:  There is no temporary 'undo edit' here like in other versions of the inline editor since the user explicitly chose save.
