Lack of interest 'Highlighted Posts' within a thread

[TheBigK]

I think the admins & mods should have a facility to highlight multiple posts within a thread. Many times, I just don't want to read the entire discussion that spans several pages; but just want to know the most useful/entertaining/informative/special posts that must be read.

Why not let the mods/admins/special user-groups have the power to 'highlight' a post and setup a new indication at the top of page that shows me all the featured/highlighted posts in that thread?

Why did you highlight Mary's post instead of mine?

W-h-a-t?

I think such a feature would be best suited in an add-on, personally.
