Comment (by Viper007Bond):

 We need a `get_comment_link()` or whatever too.

 The link-to-comment URLs (the date in the default theme) are just `<a
 href="#comment-123"...`. This is problematic if we're showing the latest
 page by default as that'd generate `http://site.com/hello-
 world/#comment-123` but if we get to the next page, that'd be wrong.

 This function can probably get away with cheating by doing
 `get_permalink($post_ID) . `/comment-page-[current page]/#comment-123`
 rather than actually calculating out what page the comment would be
 displayed on.

 Off to fix my horrible/broken custom `$comments` for `wp_list_comments()`
 code that DD32 attempted to fix.
