Title:
Comment indexing

Area:
commenting

Summary:
Build a thingy that will pull the subject lines and direct links from top-level comments on a post and output them in some kind of useful format (maybe a table or a list?) which can be inserted into the body of the post (hopefully under a cut-tag). Bonus points if it can be set to periodically run an automatic update.

Description:
This suggestion is motivated by my total lack of enthusiasm for spending an evening manually indexing a meme. I don't want to do that, that's a database query. Someone should build a thingy so the server can do this job for me.

Specific thingy-implementation-related issues should be conceptualized by someone with more thingy design and implementation experience than I have.
