        By default or option, a previously-'Accept'd (or -'Read') item should NOT need to be re-'Accept'd UNLESS the code for the item changes OR a new comment/bug is added to the item.

        Combined with http://feedback.codecollab.com/forums/4652-code-collaborator-features/suggestions/77293-hide-or-fold-accepted-chat-sessions?ref=title, non-touched items could be collapsed by default -- making subsequent reviews easier to detect which remaining items only still need review.

        If we put aside "diff", I would still want badly an option to keep accepted items accepted. When a new revision is uploaded, the accepted comments / solved defects often stay the same, and I will certainly work on totally new items, added after looking at the diff from the two last version.

        I think it would be fairly simple (and really effective for us) to have a global option (keep objects accepted when a new revision is uploaded) to choose this behavior.

        Of course, if the last "diff" could identify some changes and mark the appropriates items unaccepted, it would be even better.

        "Oh, ye of little faith"...

        Seriously, if there is something wrong with the diff algorithm the Diff view is apparently incorrect, which is much more of a problem.

        Even apart from that, it probably costs us way, way more time to go over the same comments again and again, than what would be the effect of missing a no-longer accepted comment once in a while.
