Cool idea but it is overkill.
I'd say 80% of the people use deep links. It is actually fun, IMHO, to see
a preview and then have to wait. The other 20% will either post not caring
too much about the delay or wait for the folder to be modded. Also, the
strain on Lugnet system resources would probably be to much.
Despite my obivous "nay" on this idea, I am very curious to see what Todd or
Dan have to say about this.
