Hi List,
here is the initial release (or peer review release) of a plugin for message highlighting. It has been quickly packaged as a tarball and patch against the current trunk (r2456). This is not intended for production use.
We would be interested to hear what other devs have to say about this. We would like it to be less invasive into the internals of RC, however we did not find out how to get this functionality all inside the plugin.
There are ways in which RC seems not to be very coherent in its-self. For example the message list building data seems to be different between the JavaScript and HTML output. It seems to take two different paths through the code. Is this correct or have we overlooked something fundamental? If this is correct, is it by design and if so why?!?
We believe that the use of jQuery could be greatly improved. We do a _lot_ of jQuery development and, to us, lots of what has been implemented could do with being restructured and reworked.
We are also working on a Advanced Global Search plugin that we have working in-house but is not yet simple to package. That plugin is even more invasive into the RC internals than this one.
Looking forward your feedback.
Chris Moules
