5 minute edit period bug

There is an annoying bug in the 5 minute edit period. For a minute or two after the 5 minutes it will allow you to open an editor, but won’t allow you to save your changes. This has sometimes been a source of annoyance to me. Often I’ve noticed a spelling mistake or other minor error in my post. I’ve hit edit, made a change which takes maybe 5 seconds, but can’t save it. It would be less frustrating if it didn’t open the editor at all. Any chance of doing something about this?
