I just created a mailing list archive and realized it ended up on Nabble2. Honestly, I've been avoiding Nabble2 altogether since its release since it lacks the features from Nabble1 that I really enjoy. So, I thought this would be a great time to ask you to improve Nabble2 ;-).
(Or maybe there are ways to accomplish what I seek already?)

1) Favorite forums
Being able to put shortcuts to my favorite forums in the top-right menu in nabble1 is a killer feature IMO.

2) Browsing categories
I was trying to find a suitable parent category for my archived mailing list. While maybe not perfect, the nabble1 activity-sorted category browsing usually makes me find a good category quickly, and is also a good way of finding sub-categories or other lists. In nabble2 I just failed in finding anything useful before giving up, maybe because nabble2 is giving less sense of structure?

3) Forum name search
Being able to search on category/forum *name*, instead of content, would be nice too, to assist the activity of locating a good parent category.

Best regards
