 After posting a comment the user does not get any feedback that everything
 everything worked. The user is set to the top of the page and on a site
 with lots of content he will be forced to scroll down and look for the
 comment in the masses.

 The solution to this is simple. Redirect the user to the comment just
 posted. This can be done by changing one line in wp-comments-post.php:

 Line 61 from:
 wp_redirect( $location );

 Line 61 to:
 wp_redirect( $location . "#" . $comment_post_ID );

 This would be a great usability enhancement.
