I know this has been discussed before but after using 2.7 trunk on both my sites for a few weeks now (yes, I'm one of those who need my head examined and I do it with every new version too:) I'm finding myself becoming increasingly frustrated that there's no direct way to get from a single comment (section) on the Admin's Comment page to the actual associated post on the site, only to the "post in editor" so to speak.

There are times when I'd rather reply to a comment or a series of comments on a single post from the that post's page on the site itself rather than from within the Admin even if it's just to be able to refer to the post that the comment is referring to (threaded comments are great but will not be the best choice for all blogging situations). When replying to several comments on more than one post it gets hard to recall each post from memory as I reply. I end up thinking "Now what exactly did I say?" while replying and there's no direct way to get to the post in question to check without having to go search through the site itself or go to the post in the editor and click on "Preview". It's much easier to read the post on the site than it is in the editor. I strongly feel that a link to the on site post needs to be added back into the individual comment sections on the Comments page. To me, it just doesn't make any sense to link to the "post in editor" from the comments page rather than the actual on site post.

Just my humble opinion. Anyone else?
