 I would love to see this functionality expanded too. We already have
 popular plugins such as WooCommerce that use their own custom comment type
 ("order_notes", against the "shop_order" post type) and fill up the
 comments table quickly. This slows a site down substantially, as the core
 WP does not recognise these custom comment types as distinct from the
 standard comments against public posts when doing its counts of comments
 to be approved/latest comments etc.

 I've raised it also as a question here:
