 It would be nice for users to star important private messages so they can
 return to them at a later date.

 I've written this out as a plugin at the moment:
 https://github.com/r-a-y/bp-pm-starred/archive/master.zip

 The plugin is very much influenced by GMail's UI.  It adds:

 - A "Starred" box under the main "Messages" user nav
 - A star column in the message thread loop.  (Add this patch to fix the
 table header: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/6328)
 - A star icon in the messages loop so users can star / unstar a message.
 - An "Expand" button in the message thread if a starred message is
 present.  When this button is present, all unstarred messages are
 collapsed by default.  Clicking on the "Expand" button expands all
 unstarred messages and then turns into a "Collapse" button, which
 collapses all unstarred messages when clicked.

 My question is whether this should be part of core.  If it shouldn't, I
 don't mind since it's already a plugin :)
