Well since there hasn't been any discussion on this since I raised my admittedly late objection, I thought I would bring it up again.
This change severely limits the usefulness of the commenting system in Habari, since it is currently non-trivial to make changes to the comment form if it is built with FormUI with the system. For instance, I have a number of instances where I am using a comment form without URL, Name and website, since only logged in users can comment. I can hide these controls, but I shouldn't have to. I don't need them, they should not be forced upon me. Additionally I have a comment form that allows for attaching files for uploading. Again this is non-trivial if I am forced to go through FormUI. I am not against this being the case down the road when the FormUI system is more user friendly. Currently this just isn't the case. I would like to propose that this change is reverted, and a ticket created to re-implement it when FormUI has matured enough to make adding or removing items from the comment form trivial.
