 * If this has been posted on before, I apologize; I did run a couple searches, 
   to no avail.
    I use the present comment moderation system in WP1.0.2 on one of
   my sites; when I go to approve a comment, I often choose to reply from within
   the admin section [hey, the comment box is there, why not use it?]. The frustrating
   thing is that said comment must then be approved. While it’s not a huge deal [
   I’m already on a screen that can approve it], it just seems a bit hackneyed.

 * I reckon that I should open a bug on SF about this.

 * Comments made through the admin interface probably should be automatically approved.
   However this is a less of a problem with 1.2 when you can fine-tune what goes
   into moderation and what doesn’t.

 * I’m testing 1.2 before I upgrade my regular blog and I’m noticing that the comment
   option has changed from open/close to allow/not allow. In the options I have 
   the degault set to allow (noticing that it says I can override the setting per
   post), but if I go edit a post or create a new one and uncheck the allow comments
   option it doesn’t override the global setting.
