When a non-logged in user posts a comment, the subscription notification message sets comment_name as variable_get('anonymous') (I.e., 'Anonymous' or 'Guest') instead of using the name provided by the commenter.

If Joe isn't logged in but provides his name when he submits a comment, it's much more useful for subscriptions to send out a notification identifying the author of the comment as Joe rather than as Anonymous.

I agree, but in that case we need a new variable, something like !comment_name_is_verified, which is 0 or 1.
