You mean like the way the "UserName and three others responded"
notification of new posts on a topic highlights the new posts? (try it e.g.
<
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:S12prb6trf24nhkz?fromnotif=1#flow-post-s17n6dd2f6sfe7he
>)

The "3 new topics on Talk:Sandbox" notification could do something similar,
showing a vertical line next to the title bars of new posts.

We could add a "Highlight all posts newer than this" to each post's action
menu, but it feels a bit esoteric. User JS or a gadget could easily do it.
