in thread Ability to mark specific "newest nodes" nodes as read

I didn't say that :visited was not useful. I was saying that coloring/distinguishing unread thread comments does not meaningfully "play combined with :visited". They're almost entirely orthogonal.

    To avoid misunderstandings, did you try it?

    The fact that they are orthogonal means they can be combined to signal different states.

    Orthogonal doesn't mean exclusive.

    FWIW: I'm thinking about ways to apply it to my RAT view, (alas traffic is so low that it might not worth it ;)
