Comment:

 The change might have been intentional, but this does not mean it was a
 good one.

 Who uses hash signs to represent permalinks today?  Do you use them for
 this in your blog?  Does anyone here use them for this on their blogs?  Do
 they mean anything like this to people using WordPress?  (I’m far above
 average in web-savviness and they mean nothing of the sort to me when I
 see them there.)

 In addition, two of the three links there give no information at all when
 you hover over them.  You have to look at the status bar to see what they
 are.  This is like the web 15 years ago.

 In short, this area of the Comments page is a complete disaster.
