How can I limit the user time they have to edit their questions?

I need to limit the edit option to 5hrs and after that, the question can't be edited anymore.

Thanks.

What's the motivation for this?

@samer, I have not checked that, but if it is the case, then it is even worse.

Hopefully someone shares how to fix it.

@polle my motivation is to know if there's any harm in allowing edits after 5 hours. And this is not something possible in Q2A currently. You can get the help of some developer and do it.
