Accessibility, and iPhone friendliness. Scrolling's fast and easy on a  
computer with a scrollbar, not so much when you're doing it via  
gestures on an itty bitty screen. I'd love a collapse button so that I  
could hide what I've read already and speed up access to the new stuff.

That would be *really* nice on comms, where it might be in the rules  
to cut  long posts but who ever reads the rules? And an automatic "all  
pics go behind cut" would help with the occasional trollpost of  
offensive pictures that comms get on occasion.
