Comment (by dd32):

 I'm curious as to why the notion of introducing an extra query var in
 place of status is really needed in this case?

 I don't see any discussion here as to why one was chosen over the other,
 and as more people start using custom comment types with improving API's,
 I think it's going to fast become confusing for some, especially for
 example, when the extra query variable offers no obvious benefit over
 something such as

 21101.diff] to the untrained eye.
