indicating when a question has been answered?

hi,

this is just a suggestion

at Sun's java forums, the person who asked the original question has the ability to indicate that their question has been "answered". I think that is quite handy, as it lets people who are here to solely answer questions skip that thread. There is a potential down side to this, as it might be that the questions was not answered correctly, and so by skipping this thread they can't point this out! But that aside, I do like that feature. I don't know how others feel about it.

thanks
