While there is an RFC (I'm not going to hunt for the number on a Sunday)
that specifies that bottom posting is "correct", as a reader I find
bottom posting to be hugely counterproductive. When reading a thread in
order, bottom posting requires the reader to scroll past what has
already been written. The longer the thread gets, the more painful this
becomes. I do not use the web interface, so I am not aware of the
problems its users are encountering, but bottom posting is enough of an
annoyance for me in my email client.
I am happy to comply with this request.

Is someone also addressing the web interface's apparently multiple
structural problems? If not, they will certainly worsen.

That way we may get the gist of the response from "mouse over" without
having
to select every post.
Yes, that is how bad things have become.
