Comment (by dshanske):
I was thinking about #35532, which asks for an alternative mitigation
strategy for the resources used by Pingbacks.
One of the things I mentioned in regards to load as a possibility was to
store the pingback and do the source verification later. So if there is a
flood of pingbacks...the system could store them all but verify them over
time.
That would require a comment status that reflects something that needs to
go through the normal verifications and spam filters...but has not yet
done so.
I could see some other use cases for those individuals who use comments in
non-standard manners...such as for purchase orders and such.
Specifically in regard to this way...lowest hanging fruit. I know there
are some people interested in custom comment types for 4.6. I suppose this
could be implemented in a different way as part of that, if it ends up
being something focused on.
