Add a checkbox to mark the post as unresolved when creating it

[jkudish]

It would be nice to simplify the process of marking a post as unresolved when creating it. Currently, I have to write the post and then mark it as unresolved. Instead, I'd like to have a checkbox to mark the post as unresolved that I can check as I create the post,

Instead of adding a checkbox, which is possibly heavy UI, what about being able to mark a post automatically as unresolved with !unresolved syntax or similar? So if you include !unresolved in the body of your post, it gets filtered out and automatically marked as unresolved. Similarly, you could use !resolved to mark it as resolved.

Or we could do both I suppose.

I honestly don't think that a checkbox is heavy UI. In most cases, there already is a checkbox there to be notified of comments, so adding another checkbox below isn't too heavy IMO. I like the idea of adding !unresolved but it might not always be 100% intuitive for users who might not use the plugin everyday or forget that the ability exists. So I would do both with the ability to enable/disable the checkbox with a filter.

Ok, sounds good to me

@jkudish are you still interested in doing this and #14 for v0.3?

[jkudish]

@danielbachhuber yes - it fell under the backburner, but I still want to get this done. Will try to set some time aside in the next few days.

It's super close, minus a few little niggles.

Sweet, that'd be great. If you can, please break your pull request into smaller parts (e.g. one pull request per one or two issues, as applicable)
