Comment 8 for bug 124166

> Yeah, I'd say let's just stop supporting the single-comment view.

People have bookmarks to comments etc (displayed in the interface as "permalinks", no less) so you have to have some sort of transition plan if you wish to abandon the single-comment view.

There are bugs with a large number of comments where e.g. a workaround is hard to spot even if you have a link to that comment within a page. It might be more usable in those cases to be able to link to just the isolated comment.

These are marginal cases as such, but I fathom it's not altogether a large burden to keep the single-comment view around, and with these complications, perhaps it would be simpler to keep it as an option.
