I would like to have all of the post/page quicklinks appear in their own column. I would entitle the column something like Navigation. The navigation column would include the following:
1) Jump to Page # link
2) 123Last Page link
3) Latest Reply link
There isnt anything that tends to interrup the visual flow of the page more for me than the lack of a consistant spot for these links. If they were in their own column, I think it would look nicer, and give me the ability to consistantly go to the same relative horizontal spot on the page to use these navigational features.
But I know I can be picky ... so if a lot of people do not agree with the whole concept, I would be okay with having it set as a user option.
