Comment:

 Thanks for posting this Dimitri.
 I've also put a Feature Suggestion over on
 http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas/topic/option-to-turn-off-comments-on-
 new-pages-andor-posts-by-default

 I want to clarity a point here.

 In #2 it appears to me you're requestion a check box that will activate or
 deactivate Comments for all EXISTING pages and / or posts. I am not sure
 if that's what you meant to say, but it sounds good to me. However, I
 would add that the following related feature is what some of us are
 requesting on the forum post you have referred to:

 We would like the addition of a site settings option to set whether
 ''NEW'' '''posts''' have comments turned ON or OFF by default, AND another
 separate option to set whether ''NEW'' '''pages''' have comments turn on
 or off by default, for the reasons Dimitri has outlined above.

 Currently there is one such setting option which affects PAGES and POSTS
 simultaneously, but not independently.

 I would also like to add I am wondering why this feature request has not
 been reviewed in over 6 months? Is that on par with the time-frame it
 normally takes for feature requests to be reviewed?
