#17739: Comment prompt text is misleading

 The comment form says, "Your email address will not be published."

 It can be deceptive b/c people assume it's used for some sort of
 verification, not that it goes to the site owner/comment moderator, who
 could very well decide to publish it if he/she happens to be an unethical
 jerk. People complain about this in support forums and elsewhere every now
 and then. Quite trivial issue compared to most tickets, but would be nice
 to take care of it.

 Suggestions for better text welcome.
