 Since [36588], comment content on Moderate Comment screen is formatted for
 display (previously it was raw HTML code, apparently since [5543]).

 It looks much better, but it also makes it much easier for commenters to
 insert hidden spammy links on commas and other punctuation marks that
 cannot be caught on moderation (see the screenshots).

 So it's now harder to make sure the comment has no bogus links, which I
 think is the purpose of this screen.

 Are we all comfortable with this change?
