Comment:

 The enclosed patch does this, and produces the awaiting moderation message
 with themes that call wp_list_comments().

 Themes that use their own comments code will produce slightly different
 (but not necessarily bad) behaviour: the author will see the comment
 posted normally without the 'awaiting moderation' message.  No one else
 sees it of course.  Themes can adjust their code to the new behaviour by
 changing their $comment->comment_approved conditional to check for != '1'
 instead of == '0':

 {{{
 if ($comment->comment_approved != '1')
     _e("\t\t\t\t\t<span class='unapproved'>Your comment is awaiting
 moderation.</span>\n", 'sandbox')
 }}}

 Please note that this needs further testing, and no doubt theme developers
 will want to discuss it.
