Comment:

 Hey @imath thanks for the info + the patch.

 Just to be clear this concerns the redirect done when you did `not` opt-in
 for the cookie.

 I did a test and I realised this: when you are redirected without opting-
 in, even though you don't have a cookie (so we're ok there), the form is
 again pre-filled. On the 2nd 'refresh' or going out & re-entering the page
 again the comment is vanished of course and the form is clean (we're ok
 here also).

 Having the form prefilled since I'm getting a refresh when I hit the
 comment button is basically going against the text of the consent as I
 personally understand it since I skiped the 'save' basically and I'm even
 more confused now.

 Would there be a way of having the form clean and clear as well and just
 view the comment that has the moderation message? This will surely look
 more in-line with what we're trying to achieve with the opt-in :) even for
 just the visual aspect if that makes sense?

 I'll add gdpr here as well so we can have it on our list for some extra
 opinions.
