How about when answering/replying to a personal message, the message from 'the other guy' shows up so you can keep looking at the message so you can see/read each point within that message and so answer each point, rather than guessing that you've answered each point and didn't forget/miss something, then have to send another reply to cover all points.

I agree with this as well. I typically cut and past into the new message so I have something to reference to.

The forum software is seperate from the web site software and I'm not sure Aaron can modify it in this way, but you can use the "Quote" option when you reply to the PMs and you'll see the message that way when you're typing a response.

I have been a member on this site for several years and still haven't got it all. I did not know that, Mike. I also wanted to view what the PM was so I just opened WL in another tab and toggled between them.

No. It just means that I can focus on the message that was sent to me instead of the voices in my head.
