Prevent others editing a question in the first 5 minutes

In early times of Stack Overflow, people agreed on giving an OP time to do the first edits of their question on their own, especially when someone is new and the question is less than a few minutes old.

Now I see people rushing to edit a question that is just a minute old, while the OP is editing the question on themselves, leading to frustration and breaks.

I suggest to prevent any editing of a question in the first few minutes, to stop the people breaking OPs changes.

As said, in early times of SO we went for education: Tell someone who is new what should be edited, without directly editing the question.This has changed and makes asking a more harsh and unpleasant experience.
