With the spirit of experimenting what we can do with the app, I created a "Forum" view that might be interesting for our communities or for a section inside communities.
Some notes about this view:
Shows all the root conversations comments bigger, similar to how we render children document in the query block.
each conversation shows the author, how many replies it has (the whole thread) and all the participant's avatars on that thread
the single forum item view is just the current focused discussion view, but it would be great to make that screen a bit different too by showing the main comment bigger.
we can achieve the same with children documents too, and it would looks like how we are rendering a list query block.
I believe the document "type" is something authors should select, so a "Forum" document type can enable this view or let users customize it.
