For purposes of this kind of state preservation, might it be better to
have some kind of 'import_screened' flag for comments, rather than
trying to set a reasonable state using the existing flags?

Isn't there a 'freeze' option on LJ now, so that a journal author can
prevent a comment author from deleting their comments?  In other words
( :) ) is this concern fairly irrelevant?  I could write a script to
freeze every comment on my LJ, so I don't see a problem with
frozen/otherwise non-manipulable comments being imported elsewhere.

It's a list setting, and the subject of strongly held opinions on both
sides over the last *mumble* years of Internet tradition.  I hate this
setting - other people hate the 'reply to list' setting.

If you're really lucky your email client will have a 'reply to list'
button/menu option.  Mine does, but I always forget to use it.
