Oh, I didn't mean it would show when stuff is posted for you on someone else's talk page; I just mean to make the links in the existing message more visible.

Not exactly. Under the present circumstances the preferred way of handling a two way discussion would mean that if I ask a question on your talk page you would respond on mine. The downside of that approach is that the exchange is fragmented in two places, and it gets considerably more complicated if more than two people are involved. What I am suggesting is that you could answer my question on your own talk page, and I would receive some kind of notice that you had answered. This could be either automatic, or it could be based on checking some box to notify the questioner.

Yeah. An easy solution would just be to personalize the message:
instead of
"you have new messages", it could say "You have new messages at [[User talk:Jpgordon]]".
Considering how often responses to questions are made on the
responder's
own page rather than the questioner's that could be useful.
