Motivation
It is very hard to follow a thread of discussion with portal discussions since you have to click through to read the comments/replies. Besides, you loose the context/thread as soon as you do so.
Proposal
The following needs to be done:
* Display all replies inline, threaded/hierarchical expanded
* If there are more than x replies, collapse the thread. Each reply/thread is expandable.
* When you click on a reply that comes up in a search result, display the entire thread, including the parent object.
* When replying, display the context or show an edit form inline.
* Maybe we can include a 'quote' button for easy replying.
Progress log
Implemented inline-display of discussions.
Implemented display of discussion context when replying.
No collapsing/expanding this time and no inline editing.
