I don't know how much of this you want, but here are a couple for the 'someday' punch list.

In whole thread mode, an unclosed html code ripples through the entire thread. Here's an example: after the 2nd post in the thread, everything is in italics. Apparently the font change was initiated in that second post, but never closed:

Not a big deal, obviously, but I thought I would point it out.

Speaking of fonts, is there, or could there be a 'fixed width' font as we used to have with the command? It made for the possibility of putting quick tables, or setting off quotes from magazines or whatever with some distinction, while preserving traditional features (like line-wrap, etc.). Or is there another way to do it here that I haven't found? I remember the

 command, but rarely used it. Same thing: fixed width font, but people who used it often ran wayyyyy off the right side of the page. Anyway,

Thanks for'{insert post title here}

Solved. The whole thread now closes the italics (and bold) tags correctly between each post when the author doesn't close them. So italics/bold doesn't carry over from one post to the next. The example you gave now renders normally:
