 this one. Trunk WordPress still doesn't support the feature requested by
 this ticket: separate user control over the number of items in the
 comments feed.

 The ticket is requesting a way to modify the number of comments in the
 comment thread. #9635 adds a filter called `comment_feed_limits` (later
 edited in #9886) that allows you to be able to directly manipulate just
 the number of comments on the comment thread. Nacin's patch doesn't add a
 UI, nor did the ticket request it, nor does a UI for editing the number of
 comments on the comment feed make sense because I highly doubt most people
 would ever want to do this, and for the extreme vast majority that do, a
 filter is there for it thanks to #9635, so we don't need "yet another
 setting".

 Its important to note, the ticket never asked for a UI setting, it asked
 for a variable (he meant to say filter) on the last line.

 That being said, #9635 solves all objectives stated in the ticket, and
 thus is a duplicate of that ticket.
