Steve and Alex and I talked a little last night about how the [new comments] link on the front page sometimes takes you to the middle of a thread, and there will be more unread comments above your position in the same thread. If you go back and reload the home page the preceding (still unread) comment will still be linked, and continuously returning to the home page and clicking on the decreasing number of [new comments] will eventually bring all of them into view. Still, it would obviously be better if the system would take you to the top-most unread comment in any thread with multiple unread comments. I've made a change to this effect, but not sure if it will work. Any feedback as these situations (do or do not) arise is appreciated.
