My point that it is very helpful to be used with members or posts as it reflect the value added with new topics/replies or what members participate with in the board.
I am that kind of people who do not like to add any MODs and always use the default package to avoid any later on problems when updating the software.
Hope to see this take a place in the near future, but how to know if there is a major demand for a feature or a request ? is it a poll taking a place or there is another way phpBB team know about it, like a close discussion?
For example I remember the debates about the quick reply add-on for the default package and it was really refused from the team and by time things changed for the better (always been always will).
may some one from developer team may participate and share with us how things may go!?
