I like the idea of cc self for PMs, but that will also double the number of PMs shown on the screen. As it is, a large number of PMs results in an awful lot of scrolling. If cc is implemented, I would also suggest adding pagination to reduce the scrolling and also speed up viewing (less text = less bandwidth and faster rendering on the browser).
