 Yep, consistency has many different forms. I definitely have some concerns
 about this interfering with people's habits, but I felt that overall the
 change would be a good one. I did take a look at other comment forms
 around the web, which go either way but many put comment field first, and
 Jetpack/.com comment forms put the comment field first, FWIW.
