Add Posted From Statements Similar to VB4 for Mobile Apps

(Edit: ...I suppose I could be wrong).

Tapatalk and Forumrunner both have default signature options that are appended to each message a user posts. However, I don't like the way it appears as a part of the actual post.

What I do like, is the way VB4 adds it as a part of the Postbit, in the same where where the reputation icon is. With VB3, I think it would look good added in the area where the time stamp is, maybe aligned to the right where the post permalink is.

I'm going to try and mimick the method that vB4 uses and see if it will work effectively, by just polling the user agent when a user submits a post. Not sure, haven't really taken a deep look at the underlying code coming in through the Tapatalk and Forumrunner plugins.
