So, AFAICT, there's no way to moderate user comments - just moderate
users before they join. 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.

Best,
