<i>Idea 1)</i> Option to collapse tweets containing replies, mentions or retweets when viewing an individuals profile.<p>I think this would be great for quickly seeing what a profile is really all about. Remove the extraneous content and get down to the individual.<p><i>Idea 2)</i> Enable filtering, browsing and sorting of public timelines by source client.<p>Would be good for spam control and discovery. For example, one could quickly pick out which profiles are posting junk from twitterfeed or browse tweets from a specific source website of interest.<p><a href="http://twitter.com/DotSauce" rel="nofollow">http://twitter.com/DotSauce</a>
