Thread Reviews When Posting Replies

I think Gamespot should have a topic review feature as you post.
When you push the little button to reply to a thread, whether here or in Union forums, there ought to be a copy of the last page or so of the thread under the text editor for you to review as you respond.

That probably made no sense and I can't think of how to word it, so here is an example.

Among other things, this would be very useful for quoting other users. If you want to know what was said specifically, you would no longer need to either copy your entire post, hit 'back', review it and create the reply again, or make a new tab and navigate back to the thread to re-read it.
This is a pretty basic feature most forums have, but then again most of my experience with this feature has come from PHPbb based forums. I'm not sure whether it is able to be implemented here, because I'm not familiar with the technology involved.

But hey, that's not my job! I'm just supposed to come up with the neat ideas. :D
Anyway, it's pretty annoying having to find my way back to the thread in order to adress key points in a conversation, or to get exact wording on quotations.

What do you guys think?
Thanks in advance, also I like muffins a lot.

[EDIT] Fixed the link. :D

I'd find something like this useful. I could use quick reply, but the WYSIWYG editor never shows up in it, and the moment that I hit preview, the topic is gone. The only way to get something along those lines at the moment is to open a new tab and navigate back to the thread, which is inconvenient.

I don't feel this is needed since if you click "Quote" instead of "Reply" what you are responding to is automatically added already. Then if you don't want to directly quote that person after you are done replying to their post you can delete it from the portion of your message. The Quote box at the bottom of a reply I've never liked and is one of the reasons I only use GameSpot and never go to other forums for posting like IGN etc. If they started doing that here I'd probably stop using the forums and the site entirely.double_decker

Ah, but that doesn't work for multiple-tier quotes, like if you want to respond to more than one person or respond to just one on a point by point basis.
If you don't mind, what about this 'quote box' that I assume is synonymous to what I'm suggesting would break the experience for you? I don't want anything introduced that would chase people off, perhaps it could be modified to be less annoying?

Oh, neat! Lookit that!

I never even knew that feature existed.
Admittedly, it makes things pretty easy, but I like my way. :D

Thanks for teaching me that, by the way.
