Comment (by helen):

 I agree that having to reverse-tab to required fields is very counter-
 intuitive, especially when our comment erroring flow is terrible (#4332).
 The idea of moving the field up intrigues me - muscle and visual memory is
 indeed a powerful thing, but when looking at other commenting platforms
 (included in the WP arena), having the comment field first is not atypical
 by any means. The only thing that Adam's experiment exposes to me is that
 the allowed tags blob isn't really in the right spot - perhaps it should
 be swapped with the email disclaimer/required fields text.
