There is, but amykhar has said that she doesn't see this being widely used, nor does she wish to go into overkill on features she doesn't need.

For what it's worth, putting the code that you would put into newthread.php into forumdisplay.php (in the right place...look for permissions stuff) does work kinda. I'm not going to go into detail sorry, I just guessed where to put it and it worked.

A technical answer would be: 'You could do pretty much anything you wanted with the hack, assuming you knew the php to do what you want'.
