Regarding the email notification, I've seen a lot of people request that the notification link directly to the thread in question. I agree -- people are bombarding us with this request. At the very least, it needs to at least *tell* them which thread it is -- but linking is better. Since this is such a popular request, is this going to make it into 5.0? (I didn't notice it in the change logs yet, unless I missed it.)

Regarding the dateslip -- I love it (having it turned on). Most of our viewers love it, as well, but a vocal group of them really don't. Since they're in the minority, we don't want to give in, but they're really bugging us. Could this be a user configurable option that they can turn on or off in their preferences?
