Collapsible comments

[space_monk]

A number of other sites have comments that can be collapsed and expanded by clicking on them. Is there a reason why this cannot be done within the Monastery for a more enlightening experience?

A JS for this is on my idea/todo list...

    var a, p;
    for(var i = 0; i < e.length; i++){
        a = e[i];
        if( a.className.match(/\breply-body/) ){
            InsertToggler( e[i-1] );
        }
    }
