 Also, the new comment meta plays a role here, as that may appear on the
 Edit page but not under Quick Edit, so you definitely can't hide it.

 nacin, great insights! I had forgot about comment meta, mostly because I
 have not seen it in use. It does not show up on edit currently -- which I
 think is a good thing.

 I think there is an opportunity to move the platform forward and unlike
 how "custom fields" are loaded for Posts, not to do include unless
 programatically included by a plugin.

 With simplified comment editing, providing an example implementation of
 how to expose additional fields seems like the right balance, but not to
 do expose them in core.
