How to get directly to the FIRST unread post in a thread?


E.g: There are 56 posts in a thread, today on 10:29:04, all of which I have read.
I check LQ at 13:20:03, and meanwhile 10 new posts get added to that thread.
How to get directly to the 57th post?, since that post onwards I still have to read.

When I click on the arrow button/icon w.r.t the Last Post column, it takes me to the "last" post. i.e. In that example it'll be the 66th post, not the 57th one.

The mouseover text should always indicate where an "arrow" will take you, but looking at a forum page:

* The downward facing arrow in the "Thread / Thread Starter" column takes you to the first new post.
* The rightward facing arrow in the "Last Post" column takes you to the last post.
