Comment:

 sushkov - I'm sorry, I can't get this patch to work right. It's screwing
 up pagination pretty badly.

 I think that a proper patch will be quite difficult without some
 modifications to bbPress itself. In particular, when you have a page that
 contains non-sticky posts, it's almost possible to query those posts with
 BB_Query as it stands. What you really need is the ability to set an
 offset/number (rather than page/per_page) on BB_Query. See my attached
 bbpress-3059.1.diff to see what I mean. JJJ said he's happy to put a patch
 into bbPress if it makes our job easier.

 In any case, I spent about three hours on this today and didn't make much
 progress, so I'm giving up for the moment. If a site admin wants to have a
 separate sticky loop, with *separate* pagination, it's easy to do, and can
 be done at the theme level.

 sushkov, if you can provide a patch that paginates properly (on all
 different scenarios: different values for $_GET['n'] and $_GET['p']; # of
 stickies that is greater than $per_page; etc), we can move this back to
 the 1.3 milestone. Otherwise we'll try to get it in 1.3.1.

 Thanks!
