Dan, I think (I am guessing!) Sharon is asking for the ability to type in a handle and bring up their profile. At least that is something I would find handy.

Currently I have to track down a thread they have posted to, find the post (not easy if it is a big thread) and then click on handle to bring up profile. It sure would be nice to short-cut that process.

Of course if you know the handle (with correct spelling) then you can PM from "Send New Message" in "MyFlyerTalk" and just type the handle out.
