    Hi @1ambda.
    
    What are the implications of this change? 
    
    In the scenario you describe, it makes sense.  So if person A is editing a cell and person B is running it at the same time, it will not overwrite the added content from person A, correct?
    
    But will person A notice that person B is working in the same paragraph at the same time? Will he notice that someone ran the paragraph? I think this is the basic requirement because otherwise you will start typing at the same time and then eventually someone gets overwritten.
    
    IMHO the only right way to make this whole websocket collaboration work is to have it as real-time as possible, transmitting each character stroke and showing others peoples cursors (like you have in Google Docs, e.g.).
    
    BTW the gifs are very very tiny in my browser and I can't really tell what's going on there \U0001f604  Are they big for you?
