Title:
Thread from start link in comment e-mails

Area:
notifications

Summary:
E-mail notifications of comments, in reply to your posts or your comments, should include a link for "Thread from start"

Description:
The "Thread from start" links on comments are useful for jumping back to the start of a conversation from the page, but it would be even more useful to have the link right in e-mail notifications of replies, so you don't have to either click "View the thread beginning with this comment" and click "Thread from start" anyway, or click "View all comments to this entry" and go hunting for the appropriate thread.

Is this different from bug 479?

Looks the same to me.

I'd actually like this to be the default - rather than going straight to the comment screen go to the comment you're replying to, with any existing comments shown under it. That way you avoid leaving an additional comment if the thing you wanted to say has already been said.
