Comment(by hakre):

 I just checked. The default behavior is that (genreal option to allow
 comments is set to on), that when you create a post and add a gallery
 (wether or not the post has comments switched on in post settings) the
 attachments _ever_ have the option to comment on.

 I would not only suggest to move this request into the plugin domain but
 into the theme domain. If this bevhavior is not intented, the theme must
 check for the attachements if the parent post allows comments or not.

 The other route would be to extend the attachment editor having it's own
 comment setting input controls. Having or not that feature should clarify
 wether that is wanted or not.

 See current patch for some code fragments on how to check for attachemnts
 parent open status.

 Personally, I do not want to loose the ability to have comments on
 attachments but not on the parent post.

 Resolve as "won't fix"?
