since a lot of folks hide their addresses anyway.

That's the default option, isn't it? I'd bet a lot of people have their addresses hidden just because they never un-hid it.

I think it's better if the default is deliberately unhide.

Oh sure, I just meant, I'd be surprised if the bulk of people realize they are hiding their email address.

Labeling bookmarks is the only one I care about. That would be really nice.

I'm not so sure. From a privacy standpoint, I think displaying one's email to all users should be an opt-in. If there's an "emergency", stompies can see everyone's email already.

Umm, that's what I was saying, that it's better if the default is that the user must deliberately unhide their address.

Oh.

Never mind....

Labeling marked posts would be my number one. I'd still love to see an option for user pics on profile pages, but understand if resources don't allow.

I would like:

• labelling of bookmarks. Still my favorite.

• quick edit for block quote whitefont text (I can do it now w/o the quickedit, but... that'd be cool).

This would be neat, but I don't really feel strongly:

• the pictures in profiles option, but I don't like the idea of having them on the thread pages. So, I'd like to have the option to turn them off, if they're there.

• user styles options, but only if it's not a gigantic PITA

Also:

• I like the way taglines work, but I wouldn't care if it changed.

• I am both highly amused by and highly opposed to Kat's suggestion of direct transcription of thoughts to posting box.

For the rest, I either don't understand (which is fine) or don't think they're needed/in need of change.

Other than user pictures in thread pages with no way to turn them off, there's nothing I'd object to, though. I just mostly don't have an opinion one way or the other on a lot of it.

I too would like to be able to label bookmarks.

I don't care about pictures either in the user profile or on the page.

I have no use for user styles options given that I'd leave it here. But I don't object to it.

I'd love for tags to live with the post, but that's a me thing. I like knowing what I thought tagable. As it is, my tag graveyard in my user profile also works fine.

I still want direct transcription of my thoughts so I don't have to bother with typing. But I fear it would be a lot of "So, this is what happened today.... oh look, shiny!...how do you spell superciliious...what was I thinking....oh yeah... you know, I think I need plastic surgery... then I had what's it called... I should check my bank balance.... oh, I know I'm forgetting something.... what was I thinking again."
