That's already been asked and answered (in the depths of this thread!) - reason
for not doing it is because when you use the list view (>1 post on same page)
it's more efficient just to have one submit button.


Of course I realise that ease of use may not be your highest sort criterion
when deciding what your LDT priorities are, and none of the rest of us have
visibility to either the criteria or the priority list, which is fine.

True, but if we did it might quell the frequent "When is X likely to be
implememted?" questions? Although it wouldn't help stop the repeated "what
about doing this?" suggestions which might only be quelled by some sort of
feature/suggestion area, rateable or not :)
