Bug Description
It would be great if not-logged-in users could post a comment now and confirm their email address later. This would encourage more users to post comments because it would remove the burden of registering in Launchpad.
How it would work: It would work just like the process suggested for bug 50653: Malone would prompt them for their email address, and if they wanted, they could enter their name too.

I don't think that this is a really good idea, this might increase spamming and then we might have to use moderation. We have already seen recent reports of people spamming bugs and answers which is pretty annoying.
