Thanks, that would be so cool. But it only returns the first post in the topic and not the entire conversation thread.

**Edit** : More doable, by iterating over each post in the thread in raw mode, but for a thread with 60 posts still a lot of work. Furthermore it contains only the body of the post and there is no information on who posted, and when.
