Tagging posts for later reply

Hi, I'd like to request a function that would work like this:
Beside the "Awesome" "Quote" etc. buttons at the bottom of each post, a button labeled "Tag for reply" would be added. Clicking this button would save the tagged post so that you can later view them in a list similar to the "saved drafts" list, with links to each post included in the list. Ideally it would also have a "quote this post" link that would create a post quoting the tagged post that you can continue and then submit to the tagged post's thread.
I think this would be very useful when reading long threads because then you won't be distracted by trying to remember what posts you want to reply to while going through the thread getting the full context of the discussion so far. I think it would also make us users less prone to knee-jerk replying to page-old posts (which often confuses the ongoing discussion of the thread and/or makes the thread go in circles). I know it's probably not easy at all to add this function, but I'd very much like to see it sometime in the future!

All that depends on the person writing the plugin. I don't think Vanilla has a multi-quote plugin yet.
I suspected it wouldn't be so easy to add this function, but maybe sometime it'll be implemented somehow. Thanks for the info!
