So my concern here is that we're going to let in a horde of spammers and spend a lot of time cleaning up after them. (It'll be harder to tell what posts the spam / malicious profiles decide to comment on than it is to filter out potentially malicious users up-front, is what I'm saying.) That'd be my only concern. If there's a way to moderate or even see roughly in order the new comments to look for spam, then throwing open the floodgates would make sense.
