Well, for thousands of you, there's thousands of us who do want this feature.NOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooo!
Not if you want people like me posting on your site at any rate.
Don't ever tell me to "review my answer", or else I'll "review" it by logging out and never coming back.
Incidentally that also applies to any site that has those "The administrator requires you to read the rules" warning messages, and then when you do there's a button that won't let you move off the page until it counts down. There's a faster solution - the "X" button - and I won't be back.
Me, and thousands like me. Don't do it. Ok?

Something like Tornado? http://www.tornadoweb.org/The only way to implement this properly is to do it with long polling, or a similar pseudo-push technology. It's already something I'm investigating, but people need to be aware that a sure way to get kicked off a shared host is to try long polling with an Apache or IIS server - long polling needs a very specific server running alongside your main webserver (on the same computer is fine) that is optimised for large numbers of relatively dormant open requests - something that Apache is not at all.
