Developing Requirements

I'm just clarifying my thinking at the moment. There are always tradoffs. Complexity and power often go together. I'm thinking of the tutor dealing with classes of 60ish who may have to deal with forums of 20-30 (or 100) posts. "Mark as read" whole discussions at a time, flag for follow up, flag to watch, grade etc. So what possible combination of features will give as much power as we can, and be simple, but not to simple??
