Comment(by filosofo):

 Replying to [comment:11 ericmann]:
 > So your patch keeps a not-logged-in user from creating comments for all
 the different kinds of posts

 No.  Why do you say that?

 > For example, if you try posting a comment to a password protected or
 future post, you are dumped to a blank page with no branding, no content,
 and no explanation as to why.

 That's current behavior for commenting on drafts, pending, or trashed
 posts.

 > It also doesn't prevent users from posting to other posts (which wasn't
 addressed in the original ticket).  But I can comment on post ID 130 from
 post ID 1 if both posts are published, public, and open to comments.

 I don't see why that's a bug, except perhaps in HTTP itself.
