Lightbulb "Linked From" table below the "Similar Threads" table?


You know that keyword-based "Similar Threads" table which is displayed at the bottom of every thread? I would like to suggest an additional "Linked From" table to go below it. This table would show LQ threads/posts in which people have posted links to the current thread. I think this would be beneficial for at least two reasons:

1) It would add a quick link-based dimension to one's quest for related threads.

2) It would reduce the incentive to engage in thread resurrection.

3) It may help reduce the incentive to start a new identical thread.

Great idea!

Cheers
