I don't post in SC2 any more. But I still LR things like the LoL stuff, transcribe interviews and do the art for the threads.
I also like the filter idea for two reasons.
1) You can get rid of users you don't want to see, and quickly condense the LR Thread down to the bare-bones.
2) My old LR style was to continuously quote yourself, so people who just joined in could see everything you've previously written. The problem with this is that after about 10 embedded quotes, not everything displays and the code bugs out. (Not sure if fixed?) That meant that I often had to go back at the end of games and clean out all the BBCode, which was a massive pain. Filtering would mean I wouldn't need to quote myself continuously and could focus on actually typing.
I also once brought up the possibility of a Twitter-like thing that could be placed in the OP of threads, where the latest LR posts could be fetched in real time. But that's probably too technically demanding and not worth the resources required.

My counter to this was simple. I do this:
First 5 minutes
yaddah yadddah
Then I quote that and write
5 - 10 minutes
I never go over anything and most games are about 20 minutes anyways so it works out great
