Description

I was sure there was already a ticket for that… apparently not.

Anyway, the idea is not new. For tickets with a long and complicated history, a simple linear view of the change history can be difficult to follow. We have the follow-up/in reply to links, but that doesn't give an immediate visual representation of the structure, one has to click and follow the links.

Fortunately that "follow-up" information is all we need to re-organize the comments in a tree, using Javascript. The proposed UI for that is a "Threaded Comments" checkbox next to the Change History section.

When activated, changes are displayed like this:
