Allow to see stickies in private forums

[Antyrael]

Typical guild forum scenario:
You got a Recruitment forum where you might want to keep the application forms hidden from certain usergroups.
But, when you disallow those usergroups to see other user's threads (because you want to keep them private and visible to current members/admins/mods/custom groups only), you also block them from seeing sticky posts.

It would be nice if there's a hack that adds another option when setting custom forum permissions for specific groups: Allow users to see and read Sticky posts.

It might even be taken further to only allow these groups to see the original sticky post, not the replies, but that's too much to ask I think

If anyone could help me out with this, I would really appreciate it!
