Threads and Plain views in Forums
Could we have forums messages displayed as plain by default?
I feel that threaded view is useful when you have to distinguish between several threads, like in a Usenet reader, and when you see the titles of messages only.
In TW you get to see the messages in a page that is already a selection of one single topic, i.e. the page is already the thread. Maybe it is unlikely that the discussion will be anything but chronological.
If the discussion takes place with answers in chronological order (which is likely to happen often), maybe it will be confusing to have to read answers placed before the message to which they answer.
