Re 'helpful threads' ...

For the moment, rather than a separate addon, could you look at adding an option to 'Display Threads On Top Answers Page?' and just derive the helpfulness of threads from the number/score of the rated posts?

Personally I'm not interested in adding a 'was this thread helpful?' button. Some folk may feel differently, but I think marking helpful posts is already doing that job. Seems like having both is somewhat redundant, and potentially confusing.

But ... I am very interested in being able to show both Post and Thread helpfulness on the Top Answers page.

As a slightly related request ... how about some hooks in 'topanswers'? Before I saw the post I'm responding to, I had just started looking in to adding Top Threads myself, and for this (and other) issues it'd be nice to have a few hooks - the usual vB stuff, with start/prequery/postquery/end.

BTW, great mod.
