Given that this will potentially introduce comment reordering, I am concerned that the exisitng "in reply to" UI will not be up to the job.
It is already a source of complaint for quite a few users, with the UX "jolt / context switch" of having to click and do a page reload to see the replied-to comment.
In a thread that is dynamically reordering over time, this will become more of an issue, IMO.
Would it be a good time to revisit this user experience?
Also, shall we move this discussion out of this thread and into a specific one?
