Consider the space bar's current functionality: it jumps to the
next unread post. How would it work in this scheme? Would it go
down within a thread and then jump up to the next thread? Or
would it keep going down, going through older posts within a
thread but newer threads?
An option to reverse sorting direction could be added I suppose,
but... why do you say that your proposal seems natural? Is it
implemented that way elsewhere?
The horizontal-split mode (and its sorting direction) is not new,
BTW.
