The "Edit this topic" link should be changed to say "Edit this <link>topic</link> or edit this <link>spec</link>". This would give authors a quick way to edit either the topic or spec. Ideally the spec edit link should include some additional information that include the topic that the link was clicked from. The editor should use this info to highlight any matching topics in the spec.
If a matching topic is found, the text editor should jump to the first instance.
