Comment (by swissspidy):

 Well, now your new patch makes more sense. `$_GET['post_status'] ==
 'trash'` should be `'trash' === get_post_status( $post_id )` though.

 The experience is still not ideal when going to the comments page of that
 post directly, e.g. `/wp-admin/comment.php?action=editcomment&c=6`. Doing
 that should not simply show an empty list table. I didn't propose any
 specific solution for that as I was merely throwing around some ideas. A
 simple solution would probably be showing an error message in that
 scenario.
