I have used news reads (many) and some of them, when reading a post, had a
feature marked something like "next in thread." This doesn't seem to be present
in SM 1.1.xx or 2.0.xx, and on a short test of SM 2.1{pre,beta,whatever} it's
not there, either.
Now that tabs are more or less working, in groups where only a small number of
threads are of interest, it is very useful to have the headers only in a tab,
and then middle click to open the head post in a tab, and follow the thread to
the end without starting the next thread by accident. With a slow network or
slow server this is a nice time-saving trick. Using the "next" button or
shortcut doesn't stop at the end of the thread.
Is there a way to do this, or should it be put on the list of desired features?
Note: many sites allowing archived articles from lists offer this as well, but
with all of the disadvantages of web readers in general.
