Thank you. I did try searching but managed to only use "--" for the search term which didn't return as much relevant material as I would have hoped.

So - all of those nodes look to accomplish nearly the same thing. That is great. As always I have been superceded by greater minds.

So then, what has been done, or what consensus has been taken? The most similar node was written in August of 2006. Nothing has happened. Did the idea die because it was a bad idea, or because monks were apathetic to the issue, or because nobody added code or had time to? The system I have proposed would make it unobtrusive to those who don't care, and easy to use for those that do. I'd be very willing to contribute working code, schema, javascript etc. But I won't put the time out if isn't going to be accepted.

Perhaps we need a section of "topics that we have discussed and shouldn't discuss any more" - that would contain topics such as OS choice, templating engine choice, text editor, and now "additional vote comment options."
