A huge feature on all blogs and now more and more content management systems is the ability to tag posts under a specific name, style, genre or subject. For example, although this post could be placed under the Modifications Request forum it could be tagged with "tagging, requests, 3.5, tag, blogging etc ... ".
Bascially what i would like to see is something similar to that adopted by BBPress, created by the authors of Wordpress, heres an example
here , it would be nice for not only the thread author to be able to choose appropriate thread tags, but also the general public too. And probally the most important feature would for the ability to display a specified selection of the most popular tags - who in turn would feature varying size in accordance to their popularity. Again, an example of this is avaiable on the Wordpress.org support forum homepage.
I think that this is probally an extremely unique, and of course, complex modification but as far as i am aware isnt avaiable for any of the other leading forum software providers such as IPB or phpBB - and of course would be extremely flexible within its usage.
