Re: Direct links to edit documentation

ElasticSearch also uses AsciiDoc with the "edit_me" module that generates
those. Code -
https://github.com/elastic/docs/blob/master/resources/asciidoctor/lib/edit_me/extension.rb

It results in a semi-transparent "edit me" button at the top to the right
of the page title, e.g.
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-geotilegrid-aggregation.html
