Labeled bookmarks would be very nice. The other thing on my personal list is making it so if you mark a post or if you click on a link in a post, when you go back, you go back to the same spot and not the top of the page.

Deena, that's one of the things ita has changed, at least for 'mark'-- the return to page behaviour matches that from the 'edit' function. Doing the same when you click on a link in a post is, I think, not so easy, as it's not a board function in the same way.

Bookmark descriptions have already been advocated for -- I'm wondering which of the rest are still wanted/needed.

One of those is out of our control (clicking on a link in a post and returning), and the other is already done (well, the page reloads with the marked post at the top).

Allyson's request about putting preferred charities on Buffista links

This may be a non-request -- or a request to add a charity-related link category.

I know. My point is that we might need to ask Allyson which of those it is.

I'm wondering which of the rest are still wanted/needed.

I hesistate to suggest this, but would it be worth sticking the remaining things on the list, or at least the technologically possible ones, into a Mr Poll type thing and asking people to tick boxes for everything they think should be done? That would be a democratic priority producer, and weed out any unneeded requests.

I'd like to hear discussion (both before and after) anyway -- because it's apparent not everyone is thinking of precisely the same things. I don't know if that means the poll will be adding anything.

Yeah, there are several cases where that's true.

I don't know if that means the poll will be adding anything.

I thought if it was offered to the whole community, it would make an easy "no votes, not doing it", where discussion tends to be seen as a 'bullshit consensus'. But we can work around that, and some discussion (as you say) needs to be had anyway.

Since I can't REALLY remember my problem with br, I think it is safe to let that one go....

Oh-- I remember. It always drives me batty to have to type the br HTML in lines of a list or a poem, because to a hard return doesn't cut it, and two hard returns make it double spaced. but I don't know that it is very important.

That's more a feature (well, a function), than a bug, and a holdover from TT/WX behaviour -- I'd rather not change it, for those reasons. It would start making the logic of quickedits really complicated (when is a return really a hard return?).

Huh. For some reason I thought we already did that, and ascribed the top-of-page behaviour to switching from IE to Firefox. It's the crack-smoking, I guess.

Some browsers already did that, brenda. The effects of the crack smoking may yet manifest, however.

JUST SAY NO.
