B-06150 Create a sticky checkbox on streams to ignore automated posts

[lmb244]

Does anyone like the idea of a sticky checkbox on activity streams "ignore automated"? The streams are going to get more and more filled with web feeds - it'd be nice to only show activity typed by people.

That sounds like a filter that could go along with the stream highlighting work being done. So you could create a saved search (or whatever the new name for them is) that includes or excludes automated content.

That said, people may want to check a box to hide the automated content on the fly. (It would be annoying to create a saved search for on-the-fly use.) But if by "sticky" that means a checkbox that remembers its value on a per-stream basis from one visit to the next, then that sounds like a saved search to me.
