Comment:

 This is no longer valid. Comments are auto-approved in `wp_allow_comment`
 if the currently-logged in users have the moderate_comments capability,
 which admins obviously will have:

 {{{
 if ( isset( $user ) && ( $user_id == $post_author || $user->has_cap(
 'moderate_comments' ) ) ) {
     // The author and the admins get respect.
     $approved = 1;
 }
 }}}
