I’ve gotten upvotes for recommending that there should be a recent comments for posts as well as for the whole site, and I’m not the only person who’s brought up the idea.
I think a LW how-to would be a good idea. I’m not the only person who’s asked about how to use basic features like the message box, and I wonder how many people are missing out on a lot of the functionality of the site.
Recent comments for particular posts would be a huge gain in convenience, but I think it would probably make this place less of a community, as well as less of a temptation to akrasia.

I brought up the recent comments for posts request a few months ago. I also got a lot of upvotes and agreement, but nothing actually happened.
The difference is that now there’s someone to work on such things.
