That sounds useful.

A small wishlist of related feature improvements:

* Chronological sorting of comments in the listing.  (Or is it just on 
my site that these are sometimes out of order?)
* Highlighting new comments since the last time you saw the moderated 
comment listing.
* Clicking "No" on the "Are you sure you want to delete this comment?" 
page actually does something when coming from an emailed notice.
* Clicking on the emailed "Approve this comment" link takes you to the 
comment in the published post instead of the moderated comment listing, 
which no longer contains the reviewed comment or a link to the post to 
which it is attached.

It would be cool if users with moderate_comments capabilities could see 
all of the comments (moderated or no) directly on the site under each 
post, and could click on something in the comment itself to approve it 
via Ajax.

I'm going to go finish smoking the rest of this crack now.
