I have confirmed with a former developer that SI never had a feature which allowed stepping through a user's posts.

At the time, it was not developed because (not necessarily in order): 1) hopping from thread to thread was considered to be potentially confusing to some users (!!!), and 2) maintaining the required indexes would have negatively impacted performance.

Everyone I have checked with confirms both Bob's and my recollection that no such feature ever existed, including people who participated in the development on the old sites. I think it's safe to say that anyone who remembers using that feature prior to the new site is.... confused (i.e., wrong).
