Would it be possible to make the "Quote Original" button add a link to the post in the quote name?

First they change the format to be more "bing" like... then they go and make it actively search as I type rather than just give me suggestions. I am cursing at them as my screen flashes and reloads as I type a phrase.


(Yes, I know it can be disabled, but it still caught me by surprise and is very annoying).


Sometimes it'd be nice in large threads if you could click on a quote and find out where the actual post is (so you can read the full post since many people just quote snippets.) If the forum could add this automatically I think it'd be used more often than people spending the time to insert all the code themselves.

Unfortunately I don't think it likes the nested brackets in the quote code, and it messes up the tags. Basically the person's name would be a link to the post.

You mean like that?

But yeah, this would be nice.
