Comment (by rogercoathup):

 r-a-y:

 wanted to confirm the behaviour when an activity item is deleted -- does
 it delete / trash all the corresponding comments on the associated blog
 post, or does it leave them in place?

 '''If it deletes,''' I think that behaviour is wrong (in some cases).

 Activity items are deleted for a number of reasons, and not just because
 associated content is no longer wanted, e.g. items that are deleted to
 tidy up / declutter an activity list.  In this scenario, the comments
 should clearly remain on the blog post.  [we have a client who does this
 on a regular basis].

 I think synchronisation should be done when comments themselves are
 deleted / added, not when the activity item is deleted.

 Perhaps making it something that is easy for developers to filter (or
 function parameter) to change behaviour would be best solution.

 Please ignore above, if this is already the case.
