Yes, good point. The current comment feature is not intended for some
of the uses we've been discussing in this thread, such as reporting
errors in the book. I think it would be OK for a comment to (a)
correct something in the text or (b) add to the documentation (neither
of those is a question, bug report, or complaint) -- but the problem
is that there is currently no process for using those comments to
prompt revisions in the main text (i.e., the book editors may not be
aware of a given comment and therefore may not do anything about it).
We need a better system for that (as already discussed in this
thread).
