Lists. So rather than having to quote and post a list each time, and having to find the last list posted, having an list attachment to a thread? So a poster can go straight to it and edit it at any time? So it's still in the thread, but separate from the posts, a bit like how polls appear currently.
Lists are messy, but I like a bit of messiness. I also think that it encourages participation--if everything is perfectly finished, it just ends up looking like the sort of room in which children are not allowed to touch anything. Lists bump threads and keep them active. OK, some lists are boring. Some are too long, but you can still have fun with them.
Obviously, if David programmes a different way of bumping threads and indicating participation, that's great. I wouldn't want to get rid of lists altogether, though.
