Module proposal : extension of "blog" module

 Module name : blog_addons

List of features:

1. Front page of a blog module.

Currently, blog module's front page (/STAR/blogs) just lists  the recent blog entries. I wanna replace this page with a new one that will have more features, like:

a) two views on the front page

  a.1) a list of bloggers (users with at least one blog entry) with an option to change the ordering of this list (order by name, # of posts)

  a.2) recent posts (lbasically what we have now) but with few ordering options like (old->new, new->old, etc)

b) "Blog navigation menu" that is gonna  look something like this
 

2. Front page of a user's blog.

a) Better organized front page of users's blog, e.g. a user will be able to change the ordering of entries displayed on the front page.

b) "Blog navigation menu"  - an additional menu that will be seen on the front page of user's blog (/STAR/blog/$blogger). It will include expandable menu with a list of all blog entries (by this blogger)
