I've looked on this site and can't find any reference to this.
Basically, I suggest that you can be notified when someone has replied to one of your posts/questions. Just like a notification on Facebook I guess, when you know if someone has replied to your comment there. It gets quite annoying when you can't keep track of where you've posted, but still have unanswered (or so you think) questions. Also, I find myself refreshing the page of threads constantly to see if someone's replied to my questions. I might be being stupid, and it could be impossible anyway, but someone might forget about a thread or can't find a thread when they've had a question answered on it. This function would be useful for these, if it's possible. It could only be a small number at the top of the page for you, and I guess you could opt out of it. So, would this be possible? Is it a good idea? Sorry if this is already known about or I just can't find a post which says exactly this.
Also, for those who don't like this idea, it could be opt in per post (suggested by JonnyWhoopes), maybe have it in the Go Advanced section, and have an option for 'Notify me if there is a reply to this post'.
I don't really think it should be an email sent to you every time someone's quoted you though, those sorts of things just clog up my mail, it could just be a little notification in-site (depending on how difficult that is).
