Allow users to set bookmarks. These would not be browser-based but forum/account-based. This allows users to easily reference, sort through locate 'hot items' they find of interest.

This will be looked into. You can already subscribe to topics for email notifications which are shown in the members control panel, so it would just be a question of extending this.

In the past have always tried to move away from having to much data stored in the database, this was for Access users, but now with reduced cost of SQL Server with SQL Server Express, and Microsoft not porting the JET Access database driver to 64 bit systems, I think it's now time to move away from Access.

Although an Access version will still be available of web Wiz Forums, it would only work on 32 bit systems and only supports smaller forums anyway.

I had a similar idea... but to star topic... this is done in Google Mail (Gmail) where users star messages, and those starred messages would be copied to a folder called starred... if you use Gmail you should have seen it but here it is anyway:
