Improvements implemented by now:
- Authorization and time limit (5min client facing, 15min
server facing) is now enforced for editing and deleting comments
- The page must be queried first before any action is allowed
(prevents trivial command line batch "attacks", as well as
trivial spam automation)
- The main comment form is minimized by default (only the text
area, single-line height)
- Maximum height of comments limited (will show scroll bars if
exceeded)
- Temporal boosting limited to hours instead of days
- E-mail and website length limited
- Message contents don't overflow the content area
- Displayed comment count corrected
