Like a little icon next to a post so that I can save good discussions / posts (or even individual comments) in my own bookmark repository.

We have it - upvote a submission, and then it is available in the 'upvoted submissions' link in your profile.

Note that "favorites" are public - I can view your favorited links and comments and you can view mine. (You like arthropod illustrations huh?) But your list of upvotes is private, so you can treat that like a private list of favorites.
