 On my installation, name and email are not required to post a comment. I
 must approve every comment before it appears. If a user chooses to give
 their name anyway, then after they post their comment, they get a screen
 that says "Blah says:" and below that "Your comment is awaiting
 moderation." This is expected behavior.

 However, if the user does not give their name, then they do not get any
 sort of confirmation that their comment was sent. It is sent successfully,
 but the user should have confirmation, otherwise they will likely try more
 than once before giving up in frustration.

 I have tested this bug using Firefox 3.0, with and without JS enabled, and
 Internet Explorer 6.
