Feature Request - AJAX Inline Notifications

[ShadowPuppet]

I have created this for my own site and was wondering if maybe you could include it as a feature in the next release...

Basically it involves notifications to be checked through AJAX and delivered in real, or fairly real time to the users. What mine does is whenever a notification is sent, it also fires it off to my custom table which is polled every x seconds for new stuff. When it is, it is displayed to the user by the JS side.

I think it would be great because people communicate via PM all the time and if there is no form of shoutbox on the site this way users will know when a new pm/pm reply has been received.

This goes the same for forum subscriptions and topic subscriptions. :)

Thank You :)

yeah if this is going to be added then it should be optional, because ... more ajax requests? my server is going to explode

Yea optional would be a good idea but I'd like to see it... if not a mod that does it :P
