SE Additional Optional Features

There are a lot of feature-request's on Meta that seem useful. I've gone through some of them, and made one userscript to add some, or all of them:

Features added:

In this script, I've made everything optional. You choose what you want - if you hate the fixed topbar (which it seems a lot of you do...), disable it!. The options are saved via GM_setValue2.


The script

It's on Github Gist over here.

Please post any feature requests (along with their meta link, if applicable) and bug reports (along with any errors in console, if applicable)!

I've only tested it on Google Chrome - please tell me if you find any compatibility issues. You need to have something like Greasemonkey or Tampermonkey or Scriptish to be able to use the script because it relies on GM_* functions.


1This is a flawed idea right now, it might call a normal user an employee (hence the tooltip 'possible employee'), but basically, there's a list of names in an array and the script checks for names and sees if the name is in the array. If it is, a star (★) is added after their name:

no need for context ;p

2You will be asked to set the options if you browse on an SE site without them already being set. If you want to change the options, a link is displayed (add features) on your profile. Clicking it will delete the existing options and show a box for you to choose and save the options again. enter image description here
