 This is mostly a suggestion as an enhancement.

 When you close a post's comments and pings, it should no longer output an
 rss feed. Instead, it should return a not found (404) or gone (410) error
 and die.

 Likewise, if all posts and pages on a site disallow comments and pings,
 the comments feeds should not be broadcast, and should return the same
 error code.

 Thoughts?
