1.6.5 print view in edit mode

The &print view in &edit mode looks pretty odd. It's rather cosmetical but still, we could just refresh the page in this case (refuse/ignore &edit parameter in &print view?). ..Refactoring of &print is just in 1.7 in sight.

In my opinion the print view doesn't make much sense in edit view at all. We could simply modify the print link to contain &normal when in edit mode. That would "permanently" switch to view mode, though.

PS: I've put this issue on the XH 1.7 roadmap.

Hm, print view doesn't also make sense for most of the plugin administration (config and language, for instance), but this is running in "normal" mode, anyway. Therefore, I don't think we should do special casing for edit mode, but rather look for a general solution (which may include solving the $s problem; a dedicated administration area without print link might be an alternative).
