Forum feature request: Show date/time of last message

Using my smart phone (the new forum rendering is responsive, very good), I would like to see on each forum header level when the latest message was supplied to this forum. Otherwise, I have to open each forum to check -- which is cumbersome. This is an enhancement request.

I use the "Quick links" button below the LC logo for this.
May not be exactly what you want, but works fine for me. :D

I'm not sure if PHPBB has that specific feature, but for myself I find using the "New Posts" link (under "Quick Links" near the upper-left) gives me just new posts since my last visit and it shows the time stamp of the latest post in each thread.

In fact, I find "New Posts" so useful that's the link I've bookmarked, so each time I arrive I only see the new stuff, ordered by how recently the last post was made.
