my favorite tame lapse cat comments

Pony request: favorite comments threaded by post

Wouldn't it be cool if your favorite comments could be threaded by post? That way I could review a thread using just my favorite comments which, assuming I have excellent taste, will be the best ones. Or, in the case of a current thread, I can mark the posts that raise questions about which my dad is an expert and ask him about them later.

This sounds like an excellent candidate for greasemonkification.

I like monkeys; monks less so.

The way favorites are broken up in pages would mess with any client-side solution thru the favorites page though. What I would do [ will do once I get around to it ] is hide non-favorited comments from the thread pages.

Both Thread Highlights and MultiFavorited are sorta close. Either of those could probably be hacked to only apply to "your" favorited comments.

I'm trying to figure out what that emoticon would be trying to say. Right now I'm going with 'pleased cyclops'.
