Two forum quirks

Here are three things I'd like to see fixed up on this website's forum:
1. There's only a 'mark all read' button which marks all boards, instead of just the one you're viewing. So many times I've absent-mindedly hit it it expecting just the board I was reading to be reset, only to go back to the top and find I've lost all the data, which I use as my bookmark for where to start reading each board when I come back. All the other forums I visit have per-board timings (vBulletin, phpBB, even *gak* EZBoards...)
2. Clicking 'back' in my browser from a board doesn't scroll back down the page to where I was before. Firefox 1.04 is my browser, on Win XP... usually when you hit back it takes you back down the page to where the link was. For some reason it can't manage it on this forum?
Cheers,
Andrew
