Collapsible comments for Hacker News

Just one remark about the external script: My server is configured to serve the JS file with far future expires header. Once your browser has that file, it won't even ask my server for it, so that shouldn't be a performance hit (actually your script also loads an external script, jQuery, but from a location that does not set the far future expires headers, you should use the ajax.googleapis.com server)

For people who don't know there's a link at the bottom of the pages labeled "Feature Requests". I''m on a phone but I'll add a direct link when I get to a pc. [Edit: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=363] The page doesn't seem to be completely dead but I'm not sure how much love/attention it gets.

I hated Reddit and Digg for burying unpopular comments, especially when they're the start of a discussion. I remember getting 8 buried comments in a string and the discussion still going, it made the whole thing asinine. Unpopular comments still deserve being readable without extra action otherwise we lose huge swathes of what makes HN great - like insightful and thoroughly thought responses.

* make it work with iOS 4 multitasking (so leaving the app and coming back doesn't cause it to restart and you lose your place)

* Add an option to email a page (in addition to the existing "readability" and "open in safari" options). An instapaper option would also be nice but I don't want to get greedy :)

As it is now, if you want to read something later, you have to open it in safari, then email it to yourself or add it to instapaper, then return to the app, where you've lost your place because of the aforementioned lack of multitasking.

Thanks for the otherwise-wonderful app, though -- I use it all the time.
