Should Do This should degrade features gracefully if AJAX support is not available

Should Do This continues the unfortunate tradition among Robot Co-op sites of assuming that all browsers in use can support AJAX or at least JavaScript. Some browsers cannot support JavaScript at all, and some users choose not to use JavaScript on certain sites.
This leads to unfortunate bugs such as this one: it is impossible to write an entry about a suggestion on SDT without JavaScript being available. Disable JavaScript and try it out for yourself.
I understand the seductiveness of all of the AJAX-y goodness built into Rails, but please try to think about and test for accessibility.
