Topic: Implemented Enhancement: Reply links on comments and redirection to newly added comment
Topic type:
A reply link on comments which prepopulates the new comment form with title and tags, and redirection to the new comment once it is added.
A reply link on comments which prepopulates the new comment form with title and tags would make commenting much less tedious. Currently, in order to preserve comment flow, you need to manually copy and paste the title and tags of any comment you're replying to. A reply link on each comment would make this process much better.
Also, currently when the comment is added, the page redirects to the top of the commented item. It would be nice if Kete utilized anchors to show the new comment after redirection.
What do you think?

Also, the private notifications for comments should have the link go back to the comment rather than simply the item commented on.
On the implementation side and parent comments; probably best to use acts_as_nested_set for speed if we start getting a lot of threading.

While we are in there, we should when the comment was made to the display for comments.

Sounds good to me.
On the implementation side we should add tracking of the parent comment id to the comments model. We can use this to group comments together in sort order that are direct replies to each other. Indentation by reply level would then be possible as well, though I'm not sure width wise if it can spare the room.
We should also look to make the terminology of the interface consistent across the interface for discussion. We should replace "comment" with "discuss' or "discussion" as appropriate.
We should evaluate a couple other things at the same time if possible.
