Comment (by rianrietveld):

 Updated the patch after discussion with @joedolson and @afercia in Slack:

 Added to the defaults array:
 {{{#!php
 'comment_notes_logged_in_before' => '<p class="comment-notes">'.
 $required_text . '</p>',
 }}}


 Added

 {{{#!php
 echo $args['comment_notes_logged_in_before'];
 }}}

 to the form if is_user_logged_in()

 If a user is logged in the message shows: Required fields are marked *
 If a user is not logged in the message shows: Your email address will not
 be published. Required fields are marked *

 Also changed required="required" into required
