Add "subscribe to all comments" to the community management page

Area:
community management

Summary:
I would like to suggest adding a link to the subscribe to all comments to a community page from the community management page.

Description:
I just spent 20 minutes looking for the page which allows a community maintainer to subscribe to all comments made to that community. It can currently only be found under the "track" link on the community's profile. I would like to suggest that it be added as a link on the Manage Communities page as well: http://www.dreamwidth.org/community/manage

Give option to assign keyword of deleting userpic to still in use icon

Title:
Give option to assign keyword of deleting userpic to still in use icon

Area:
icons

Summary:
When deleting icons, there should be a prompt allowing the keyword to be auto assigned to a non-deleted icon

Description:
I've just deleted a bunch of pics to bring me down to the paid account limit. Most of my icons have meaning or text, and add context to an entry, thus I want old posts to continue to have a non-default icon. I have therefore manually assigned the keywords of deleted pics to icons I'm keeping. This was annoying, longwinded and time consuming, it's not a taskflow normal users are likely to follow.

I intend to further delete more icons, to create space for new ones, etc. I'd like this to be a lot easier and less frustrating.

In addition, many users (here and on LJ) are completely unaware of the feature that allows icons to have multiple keywords, and those that change icons regularly end up with a large number of older posts and comments just displaying their default pic--I dislike this, especially on comments made to my old entries.

A solution can be that when you tick an icon for deletion, there is a method to automatically assign the keyword to a different icon if the user wishes. This could be acheived using Ajax, an interstitial page after hitting save changing, listing deletions and giving a standard dropdown to select, or other methods.

It might actually be good to have an "are you sure" prompt for icon deletion anyway, I nearly deleted the wrong icon more than once, so this could be implemented as part of a general workover of the UI & taskflow for the manage icons page.

Of course, many would prefer not to keep old keywords, so it must be completely optional, and done in as user friendly a way as possible.

Allow an icon keyword to be assigned as primary keyword for selection, etc

Title:
Allow an icon keyword to be assigned as primary keyword for selection, etc

Area:
icons

Summary:
For icons that have multiple keywords, make it possible to have one only that appears on the drop down menu for posting and commenting.

Description:
Many of my icons have aquired more than one keyword over the years, some because they may have multiple usage contexts, others because I've given them the keyword of an old, deleted icon.

While I might like to merge the keywords together, in some cases I would like to keep both keywords extant, in order that I may change icons again in the future.

Example: I have an icon tagged both ORLY and YARLY. At one point, I had a different owl for both, but currently I have Daleks and Cybermen conversing--I may in the future want to split them up, but currently both keywords appear in every drop down menu, cluttering up my already long dropdown (and, presumably, mildly increasing server load, etc each time).

If the first listed keyword for each icon was allowed as an option to be the primary keyword, others could be retained but my selection menues would be a lot easier to navigate and less annoying.

If this isn't possible, a way of listing old keywords that have been renamed would be useful, as they can still then be resurrected.

(NB this would also help those crossposting who have more icons on one or other site, they can use the full keyword set on both sites but still have manageable selection menues)

Edit: To clarify, my suggestion is to allow people to choose, if they wish, a primary keyword, not to force all icons to only have one primary keyword, I want to supplement and improve current behaviour, not replace it.
