 * Your plugin provides useful functionality, but the accessibility of the checkbox
   added beneath the comments form is not good. The current HTML of the checkbox
   is of the form:
 * `(input style='width:30px' type='checkbox' name='subscribe-reloaded' id='subscribe-
   reloaded' value='yes' /) Notify me of followup comments via e-mail.`
 * Note that I have changed the < and > chars to brackets ( and ).
 * If you gave the checkbox a properly linked label this functionality would be 
   available to (typically blind) screen reader users. Also, the label would become
   an enlarged click zone for the checkbox – something that would help some with
   motor impairments.
 * All you need to do is to change the code to read:
 * `(input style='width:30px' type='checkbox' name='subscribe-reloaded' id='subscribe-
   reloaded' value='yes' /) (label for='subscribe-reloaded')Notify me of followup
   comments via e-mail.(/label)`
 * This one small change will significantly improve accessibility.
 * If you have any questions about this or other accessibility issues please get
   in touch.
