Because the authentication backend now allows for role based permissions you might have a blog post which anonymous users are allowed to comment on (create_comment) and another they can't.
Now you would have to have a guest_can_comment flag or something on the blog post and check that before displaying the form. Instead I want to use the permission system to see if the anonymous user has create_comment permission on that specific blog item. so that's why I think this would be a good addition. It would also allow for temporary shutting down of certain publicly accessible items by simply removing/disabling the permissions for guest users.
