Comment (by joehoyle):

 I'm strongly in favour of adding support for updating all fields via
 `wp_update_comment`, that's the internal API, not about UI so I don't see
 any reason why this data is arbitrarily immutable. I think there's even
 case that a comment update could/should actually trigger changes on these
 fields (at least potentially). Tying the data APIs of WordPress to the
 front-end website use-case IMO is not a great idea, therefore it seems
 that within the context of the underlaying "WordPress framework" of a
 comment object, all fields should be modifiable programmatically.
