 This ticket is a follow up on my Twitter and subsequently email
 conversation with Joseph Scott (josephscott) about the new commentmeta
 table in WordPress 2.9 and the XML-RPC API. We use the plugin Feature
 Comments (http://wpprogrammer.com/feature-comments-wordpress-plugin/) for
 hiding or featuring certain comments. The plugin stores either a value of
 'Buried' or 'Featured' in the commentmeta table and uses these values to
 append a css class to comment_class.

 I'd love to retrieve these commentmeta values (buried/features) through
 the XML-RPC API (which we use) with wp.GetComment or wp.GetComments, so
 we're able to programmatically hide or feature these comments in our own
 iPhone app.

 Please note this is a specific example, but my request should I no way be
 seen as a private request. I think the commentmeta in 2.9 was a great
 addition for stuff like Twitter usernames, mood, gender, and so forth. I
 hope we're able to retrieve these values programmaticaly through the API
 as well.
