Comment (by obenland):

 `.comment-author` is likely to interfere with the existing class in
 comments and HTML5 comments. It might break visual back compat in themes
 that don't have `.comment-author` selectors "namespaced" to comments
 themselves.

 We should probably try to come up with either a (better) different class
 name, or another way to achieve the same result.
