Link to journal or comm tags from the update page

Title:
Link to journal or comm tags from the update page

Area:
entries, user interface

Summary:
On the Update page, next to the tag entry field, make the 'Tags' label link to the tags page of the journal or community that is being updated.

Description:
Not everybody has all their tags memorized, much less all the community tags for every community they post to, even if they made the tags.

There is auto-fill for tags, but that only works if you are pretty sure about the first couple letters. I usually wind up on the tags page anyway, and this would put that link right conveniently there.

A pick-tags-box would probably be better, but this is something small that someone can do now while we wait for the update page overhaul.

Add a followfriday tag feed to the "latest things" page

Title:
Add a followfriday tag feed to the "latest things" page

Area:
tags, latest things feed

Summary:
The Latest Things page (http://www.dreamwidth.org/latest) could include a tag feed to journal entries tagged "followfriday".

Description:
Follow Friday is a twitter trend that some Dw users are taking up to spread the word about their favourite comms, feeds, and journals on Dw. A comm, <lj comm="followfriday"> has been created to collect links to people's FF posts. The drawback of the comm is that a new Dw user needs to be told it's there first, to be able to use it for it's purpose: finding comms, feeds, and journals that they're interested in and would like to follow/read.

Follow Friday posts do of cause come up under the Latest Things feed, which any new Dw user can find. Adding a tag feed for these specific posts would make them all the more easy to find (not just for new users, but old ones too). Much like twitter's hashtag, these public posts would then be easily accessible to anyone.

Crossposter: allow crosspost box to be definitevely unchecked when editing entries

Title:
Crossposter: allow crosspost box to be definitevely unchecked when editing entries

Area:
crossposting, entries

Summary:
When you edit a crossposted entry, you can check the crosspost box if you don't want the entry to be edited on the other site. However, if you edit the entry again, the box will be back to being checked and you'll have to uncheck it again. I think it should remember the last state of that box: initially checked, keep checked unless it's changed. Initially unchecked, keep unchecked unless it's changed.

Description:
In my case, I realized too late I didn't want a particular entry to be crossposted so I deleted it on the other site. Now I have to uncheck the crosspost box every time I edit the entry. Otherwise I get a 'crosspost failed' message.

If you prefer the current behavior, what would you say of restricting the suggestion to this particular case (keep unchecked if the entry's deleted on the other site)?
