Edit from 2022: Consider checking the Forum user manual if you're not sure if something you're looking for might already be possible.
Hello, Forum!
This is Aaron and JP of the EA Forum team.
We spend a lot of time working on the Forum, and we’d like to hear your ideas for making it better. These can be new features or other kinds of requests.
Even if you don’t have suggestions of your own, consider upvoting ideas you like from the comments. That will have nonzero influence on the features we prioritize (though we also take many other factors into account).
If you’d rather make a suggestion privately, get in touch with us through this page.
Edit April 2022: This thread is still very live as you can see by the continual influx of suggestions. We have now synced our asana project with our public Github issues list, so you can see our recorded tasks there.[1] I'd still recommend suggesting features here so that other users can see and discuss them. — JP

Note: there's a delay between when we write tasks down and when they get triaged into a state that gets synced with Github.
Thanks for the suggestion! I like the idea of visually distinguishing the most important notifications (i.e. the ones you might want to reply to).
There are a lot of customization options for notifications, so I'd recommend looking through your account settings:
For example, you can set "Comments on posts/events I'm subscribed to" and "Replies to my comments" to notify you both on-site and via email.
You may also prefer to batch email notifications (rather than receive them immediately) if you get too many (for example, you could batch "Comments by users I'm subscribed to" to get an email about it once per day).
