Hiding "Reply to Thread" button once you click on it to open a reply

I've been caught by this a couple times. When you click on Reply to Thread it opens a reply underneath of it but that button is still there. If you accidentally click on that to reply it wipes out everything you just typed. It would be really helpful if that button was hidden once you click on it and open the reply text box. Or, even adding a bit of javascript of something that would pop up a warning if you've already typed in some sort of reply. I'm sure there are others who have lost good reply's because of this and just didn't feel like typing in the whole response again...

    If you make that mistake, just right click in the now-empty edit box and click Undo. The text you thought you lost will return.
