      Covered by behat tests and unit tests.

      Setup:

      Create a forum, post a discussion and add some replies with file attachments.

      Testing:

      1. Verify that the forum displays each post as it did before.

      2. Verify that after following a "permalink" to a forum post, the post has a border on the left (so it looks like the "current" post)

    Description

      HTML structure of a forum post can be improved.

      Improvements:

      1. Use <article> tag to mark it correctly.
      2. Use <time> tag to include the real datetime information.
      3. Use <address> tag to specify who and when the post came from.
      4. Use heading level tags to mark the subject of each post.
      5. Properly nest reply posts within their parent <article>
      6. Use a header tab for each article to split the metadata from the content.
      7. Use CSS to separate links, not text content.
