Title: Sticky URL should respect sort parameter

http://www.reddit.com/r/ideasfortheadmins/comments/209xxg/sticky_url_should_respect_sort_parameter/

For example this: http://www.reddit.com/r/melbourne/about/sticky leads to the current sticky, which could give people a permalink to put in their bookmarks for the day's random discussion.

Currently this is the link: http://www.reddit.com/r/melbourne/comments/208jub/its_the_rmelbourne_random_discussion_thread/

However, the former does not respect the ?sort=new flag, which is convenient especially when the thread has grown and people would like to see new replies without needing either to manually edit the URL or messing up their global comment sorting.
