#57106: Allowing comment form error pages

 Current status quo:

 As of now, it is not possible to have customized a customized validation
 for forms (covered in #57105 )

 And every single error will either end in a wp_die() or an exit.

 Proposal:

 Instead of always ending in `wp_die()` we could forward to the referer
 page, including the error_message and the $_POST data, to prefill the form
 (especially with the comment, since these would be really painful if
 lost).

 `comment_form()` would require an enhancement to show errors.

 This idea is still in progress, I'll provide a working proof of concept
 later, but I wanted to open this for discussion.

 Note: Will also need some kind of representation for the Rest API.
