Request: Retain 404'd threads

[nepflux]

As of now, when a thread 404's it's no longer browsable. These threads should still be re-visitable, and at the bottom where it usually says Loading or Archived, it should say 404 in those cases and display whatever is cached (all text replies, whatever images were loaded, etc.)

The X in the bookmarked threads list that marks deleted / 404 should remain as the sole indicator.

Well, Post models are actually not saved in the db. Threads do stay in memory as long as the app is running, removed threads actually show "404" in the status bar. It's not an easy task to add saving posts to the database because it adds some overhead and a lot of refactoring will be needed to achieve it. That said, I will keep this issue open for further thoughts and ideas. Like we could just hack it and save the json to a file.

A solution could be the the option of "Download Thread" similar to "Download Album" but instead of only download images, also it creates (or downloads from the 4chan API) the most recent JSON for said thread in the same folder. That way, the app, can have a "Archived/Downloaded Threads" section where it just simply scans the folder looking for the .json files inside thread folders.

Another app named Overchan uses Dollscript to save threads. Overchan: https://github.com/miku-nyan/Overchan-Android Dollscript: https://github.com/SthephanShinkufag/Dollchan-Extension-Tools/blob/master/README.markdown
