Now that IFAC is done, I was thinking it'd be really slick to add another column to the issue listing pages (e.g. http://drupal.org/project/issues/75232) called "Replies" which included the number of comments on the issue. Just like the tracker page, it'd also include the "N new" link if there were new comments, which would be quite the usability boost. Then, directly from the main issue listing for a project, you could jump to the new comments on each updated issue, without having to go through the extra link in the little "jump-to" table. Plus, it'd be nice to see how many replies are in each issue at a glace.

Submitting this initially postponed, since I think we should just add this improvement to the default views we create, once project_issue is fully views-enabled: http://drupal.org/node/76725

my only concern is that the table is already pretty horizontally full, so we'll need to take care how much more we put in there.

Setting this back to active since project_issue views-integration is almost complete, and since the "Replies"-column has made it into the default view.

I've taken a look at the views-related code to see if it would be easy to add the "N new" to complete this feature request, but I'm afraid the views bit is a bit too complex for me at the moment.

Anyway, figured I set this to active to put this back on the radar...

It's fixed. All the places that have a "Replies" column has both the total count and the "new" count under it. Of course, "new" only appears if you're logged in. But, if you log in, you'll see them. For example:

Now I see it... Didn't notice that I wasn't logged on earlier, so only saw the # of replies. Looks really good!
