 need to "collect them all up" so that you can re-thread them, because they
 come across the wire in "last edited" order, so they're not very
 structured (other than their LJ DB ids)

 Ok.

 Can we not iterate through each comment and add to the relevant post then
 post process all the comments on a post to rebuild the hierarchy?
