Comment (by desaiuditd):

 Shouldn't this go with the next 4.1 release since I'm assuming this to be
 a major change for comments module and any developer would expect this to
 work if they are updating a comment_type.

 For example, in a plugin that I'm developing, I'm using WP_Comments for
 followups and each followup has its type let's say, Public & Private
 followup. Now comment author can change the type of his own followup. So
 he would just change the type from the UI that I've provided on the front-
 end and in the back-end I'm changing the comment type using
 `wp_update_comment`.

 So I think this is a valid case.
