When clicking on a thread in the pinned pullout, it would be extremely useful if, in addition to displaying the relevant post (as at present):
- if that thread is more than half way down the screen, the pullout could authomatically scroll up to bring it to the middle -- therefore in most cases avoiding the need to scroll manually
- if that presently causes the Load More prompt to appear, the next block of messages should be fetched in the background
Ideally this should work together with multiple filters such as:
- a specific date range, such as today, yesterday, this week, this month or a picked date range
- supplementary tags, such as bug or ideas pot in feedback
- thread parameters, such as unread, no replies, less than or more than x replies
- keywords in title
- keywords or phrases in the message body
- personal favourites -- any named and saved combination of multiple filters
Probably these filters should be implemented for the tag index rather than specifically for the pinned pullout, so that they would also be useful for mobile users. But the filters need to be accessed from the pinned pullout as well.
