Since the change in when FT marks posts as "read" several months ago, I've gotten into the habit of marking a forum as read when I finish looking at the threads I care about in it. This requires going to a menu that is only at the top of the page (though I'm often, having gone through all the thread titles, at the bottom), pulling it down, and selecting a menu item.

I realize this isn't the worst thing in the world. When I stack it up against war, famine and disease it's a distant fourth. Still, when I have to repeat this process a few dozen times a day, every day, it gets annoying.

Is it possible to have a button to mark a forum as read, preferably both at the top and bottom of the page? Or did I miss something really obvious here, like the button is already there or I'm doing this the hard way?
