Comment (by mindctrl):

 A concern I have with the current PR is that there is nothing in the wp-
 admin UI informing the admin/moderator that the comment in the queue was
 submitted by a logged out user who provided the email of an existing user.

 The PR adjusts the email text via the `comment_moderation_text` filter,
 but if email notifications are disabled then the admin gets no
 notification at all of the potentially problematic nature of the comment.
