Improving Stacks in dA Messages

I've been playing with stacks in my Messages to try to make sorting through six-months worth of messages a little more stream-lined, but I noticed the Activity Message stacks can only be organized by your own deviations. I think if there were a function to toggle between organizing stacks by your own deviations, other users, etc, it would make things a lot more stream-lined when using stacks. I for one only comment on someone's profile once if they've given me multiple favorites (so as not to overload them), and being able to organize it by deviants would be much simpler than hunting through, yikes, 130 favorites separately.

The toggle function could probably include more than just the choice to organize by deviation or user, which I'm sure someone has a few ideas for. I just think it's a really useful idea that could use a little more specificity in the execution. What do you guys think?

I'd just deal with it. Except I keep the stacking feature off.

Normally I don't use stacks, but I think if there was a little more control to them, I would.

Lol, see, normally I'm good about responding to messages, but I studied abroad this summer and didn't take care of them, and then because I didn't take care of those, I didn't take care of the ones in the months following it, and it just snowballed until I ended up with 1700 messages in my Messages. I'm down to 600 now, through a combo of deleting and faving, but still. I think giving a little more utility would help with that situation, especially for people who get DD's or whatever.
