Multiple bugs and questions

Loving this plugin! Looks very promising.

But I have a few questions and problems:

1) If someone without Publish capabilities (for example a user with “contributor” role) tries to make a new post on the front-end, the “Publish” button should change to say “Submit for Review” and the post should go into the normal moderation queue for approval. At the moment it just says “Error” and it saves the post as a draft to the Contributors account.

With the current workflow anyone with Contributor role (or anyone without Publish capabilities really) cannot submit new posts for moderation, which I feel is a huge missed opportunity.

2) I need to add support for a custom post type, but these instructions are not very clear.

add_post_type_support( 'page', 'front-end-editor' );

Does this go in functions.php? Where do I add my custom post type name? Some examples might help.

3) It says we can use edit_post_link for adding an “edit post” link on the website (instead of using the admin bar edit post button). Is there a similar function for adding a “new post” link?

4) When a new post is added on the front-end, sometimes there are two blank drafts that also get saved. Is this a bug?

I think it happens if there is a delay between starting a new post and beginning to type.

I have a community based site, and if each user has a bunch of these blank drafts it will start to add up really quickly.

Again this really is a great plugin, hopefully with these things sorted I can start using it! ??

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
