Changes (by caesarsgrunt):

  * priority:  normal => high

Comment:

 This second patch automatically destroys (ie. permanently) comments 30
 days after they were deleted (ie. temporarily). (Maybe this should be an
 option?)

 Next I might add a note at the top of the page after comments are deleted,
 Gmail style. "''X posts were deleted. Undo?''"

 Note that at present if you 'reply' to a comment using the new ajax reply
 form, and then delete ''the second comment on the page'', the delete
 function is called twice for that comment. Due to the nature of my 'patch'
 this causes that comment to be permanently deleted immediately, like it
 currently is anyway without the 'patch', whilst temporarily incrementing
 the deleted comment count by two.[[BR]]
 I think this is a bug with the reply feature, but I'm not sure.

 '''Feedback please! '''[[BR]]
 If popular I'll do the same for posts; should be just as easy.[[BR]]
 If unpopular I'll try making it into a plugin, at least for myself. Might
 be harder...
