The only problem is, part of the meaning of the post is its context, and sometimes the author's identity provides context. Like when multiple people are having a discussion and someone says, "As I wrote above..." or something. They could just link everything, but it'd be best if the anti-kibitzer assigned random names or numbers to each commenter in a given thread - or something like that. That way you'd at least be able to follow a discussion. Or does it already do that?
Yes please. Gensymming authors by thread would fix most of the problems on both side of the kibitz button.
The author should probably be in manual control of which comments visibly share authorship.
