[wp-hackers] Hooking into Comments

[ml_wordpress at copperleaf.org]

So you took the approach of not inserting a post at all and just used a 
ghost post id. In my case I was going to actually use the post record 
(title, content, etc) but just not display it in the normal fashion. 
Changing the status to a new type did not prevent it from showing up. I 
had to modify the query with the post_where filter and add a ' AND 
post_status != 'mystatus'. That makes me nervous.
