A couple of my own contributions.

Quoting - When quoting a post that has multiple lines, the paragraph format is done away with entirely.

"Hello.
How are you?"
becomes
"Hello.How are you?"

Obviously, this is not a pressing matter, and I'm sure it is just the early-stages of the quoting function, but it would be really great if we could clean that up somewhere down the line.

Post Sniping - A feature that I really enjoyed on the backup forum was the safety in place against post sniping. If someone posted while you were typing, the post would be displayed to you after you hit the submit button. You would have time to make revisions, and hit the submit button a second time to actually post. I tried to test it here, and didn't see anything quite like it. This isn't entirely necessary, and certainly not high up on the to-do list, but I thought I would mention it here.

I'll also echo the Comrade suggestion. I've always wanted to be one. :3
