Comment (by jaswrks):

 Example use case for custom comment types in Gutenberg.
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/4685

 I took a look at the GitHub repo mentioned in the ticket description. It
 seems like work has stalled on custom comment types? Or has it resumed in
 another ticket I'm unaware of?

 In the use case for annotations in Gutenberg, others following this ticket
 might find it helpful to read over some conclusions I came to after work
 on an annotation API. I posted those thoughts here:
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/4685#issuecomment-362785520

 If Gutenberg annotations were implemented using a
 `register_comment_type()` extensibility feature in core, one of the most
 important considerations in private back-end annotations would be
 permissions. Like custom post types, it would be awesome if custom comment
 types supported the full range of meta-caps and the configuration of them.
