I don't mind in emails because they're more conversational and don't need to be converted into Document mode but here I think it's a bit of a lazy practice, I think it's better to either write at the bottom of the flow or slot in your comments where relevant (but even that it confusing for the reader unless you use QuickDiff all the time).

I don't see a problem with TopPosting. It calls attention to the new comments, just like italics does.
