Message index sorting options are a mess.

As I suppose everyone noticed. Particularly bad with hover menus (I'd call it unusable, in practical terms). Just ugly with click menus. @todo

Go for it. I'm certainly not going to argue. I did it over at the site I used to run. One person questioned it once. Nobody else gave a rat's.

FWIW, views was one of the things that was considered controversial at Wedge. I wanted rid of it but apparently some people who care will miss it (to which the standing answer absolutely applies: anyone who cares is going to be using harder analytics tools than what's in the box and everyone else won't care anyway) Mind you I took the same view on that as for the number of 'guests online'... I could have saved so much performance by not caring about this random figure... On a pure performance note, not having views saves you a query pretty much every topic view which is not insubstantial. (It's not quite once per page view, because viewing the second page of a topic right after the first shouldn't generate another query)
