 `wp-comments-post.php` is a remnant of days gone past and a great example
 of technical debt. Everything going in is slashed, and every error
 condition results in an `exit`, except when it results in a redirect
 header followed by an `exit`.

 There's not much we can do about this, but what we can do it abstract a
 bunch of the code into a function, in order to make the actual process of
 submitting a comment unit testable.
