 > I'm not confident that the current behavior is not undesirable.

 Had to read that one more than a few times to make sense of it.  Not sure
 if I still do, but...

 I don't see what's undesirable about a registered user wanting to update
 their comment info when they change their profile.  I would want my name
 to be consistent throughout the site.  The new email address would be
 important for plugins like "Notify me of further comments."  And if I
 change domains, all my imported would comments still contain my old url.

 There would be less confusion all around--for visitors and users.
