Comment:

 What [attachment:33717.2.diff 33717.2.diff] does:

 * Adds a new function called `wp_notify_commenter` which is hooked to
 `transition_comment_status`
 * Includes two new filters:
  * `comment_approval_notification_text`
  * `comment_approval_notification_subject`
 * Changes the `Your comment is awaiting moderation.` text to `Your comment
 is awaiting moderation. You will receive an email when it gets approved.`

 The email looks as follows:

 >Howdy Jane Doe,
 >
 >Your comment on the post "Hello World" got approved.
 >
 >View comment: http://src.wordpress-develop.dev/2015/09/06/hello-
 world/#comment-16

 Changes to the first patch:

 * Email is only sent when comment gets approved, not when it got trashed
 etc.
 *  No `comment_notification_notify_commenter` filter. Functionality can be
 easily disabled using `remove_action( 'transition_comment_status',
 'wp_notify_commenter' )`
