How about default sorting the message threads so that the thread with the most recent reply is at the top?
This would be possible but I think it would be confusing to the user (posts would jump to the top). See below...
I've customized Squishdot myself to add this feature, which is very useful in collaborative work. The effect is that topics (threads) which have ongoing activity stay near the top of the list. Threads that become quiet slide down the list until they fall off the bottom. This serves to highlight active discussions and works nicely in support of workgroups and committees. I'd recommend that you make this an option in ZUBB. Jim Harrison University of Pittsburgh
