Re-Numbering of Posts in Moderated PPRuNe Threads

Question for PPRuNe lords and masters. In a heavily moderated thread - such as the current AF 447 - when a post is deleted by the mods, all subsequent posts are renumbered. So if post 512 is deleted, post 513 now becomes 512....

Is it possible - perhaps even desirable - to maintain the original post numbers, for ease of user reference? So, if post 512 is deleted, then the visible sequence just goes 511, 513...

Although there is a Permanent Link option available, many posters refer to something in a numbered previous post - but that number very often changes within a hour or so of it being posted.
