I was going to explain it, but a picture is worth a thousand words. I also added some words for good measure.

I often arrive to a conversation that's 10+ pages long and wonder if I should comment on something mentioned in the original post. I would like to be able to figure that out without reading all 10 pages, which I think is reasonable since not all problems related to something like a DIP would necessarily be related to each other.

I wouldn't know where to start on dlang.org, but I've implemented the same thing on another website in a matter of hours (a significantly less sophisticated site).

In hindsight, maybe I should have thrown this up on the appropriate Bugzilla as a feature request.

You can already add "newthread:y" to you search queries which will only search for posts which started a new thread.

For everything please, may I direct you to DFeed:
