In Forum: Site Feedback and Support

Something I thought would be useful is the ability to have the first, say, 160 characters of a thread's initial post show up in the tooltip for the link to that thread, be it in a forum or on the homepage. A lot of the time I'll see an interesting thread title on the homepage, but then I'll click it and (usually within the first few words) realize it's not at all what I had implied from the title, then I have to close out the tab I opened it in, or reload and go back to the homepage.
If Andy is okay with it, this PHPbb addon ( https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/topic_preview/support/add_on:_(mb)tooltip_for_topic_preview-t_97920 ) is exactly what I'm talking about, though perhaps it would be preferable to use the actual system tooltip instead of a jquerey popup window nonsense.
