Movable Type's implementation of Trackback had a feature where if you
passed in a mode parameter of RSS it would provide an RSS feed of a
post's trackback pings, as described here (
http://www.movabletype.org/docs/mttrackback.html ).
I use this for a thing I call Backtrack, which you can see with this
post (see Backtrack at end of article -
http://weblog.burningbird.net/archives/2004/07/21/kind-people-neat-pictures-and-kookaburra/).
I didn't even think about this not working with Wordpress. I thought
about adding the functionality to wp-trackback and then sending a patch
to Matt to incorporate into WP. The thing is, would something like this
be useful?
If I and Sam Ruby are about the only one's who have done this type of
Backtrack, I'm not sure if the time involved would be worth it.
Any thoughts on this?
