Suggestion: Add option to notify for subscribed threads

I like the idea of subscribing to a thread but I hardly check my email so it's a bit useless to me. How about in addition to getting an email for new posts, there's also an option when subscribing to give you a notification instead? Can't think of any downsides for this, if you don't want it just stick to emails. I'd like to keep up to date with a few threads without having to scan the forums for activity every day.

In the meantime you can just check your User CP for updates to threads you've subscribed to.
