Since I am getting a lot of comment SPAM and those people apparently do not know that comments are moderated, I want to discourage that kind of activity by adding a small disclaimer above the comment submission form.
I know I can do this by changing my theme and hard-coding the text somewhere, but before making a feature request I would find out first if this is not possible with Drupal 6 as-is.
I would like to add custom text that may look like:
We do not accept SPAM. Unfortunately, comments are moderated. This means that posts will not appear immediately and will be removed if it contains links to anything but personal or non-commercial resources.
I know you can add a disclaimer for other content types, but apparently you cannot for comments itself. Does anyone have a good idea of how to implement this ?
Would this be an acceptable feature request for Drupal ?

I haven't done this in d6,
I haven't done this in d6, but you should be able to make a little custom module and implement hook_form_alter to add some static text. A quick little search with "theme comment" in the d.o. search box found http://drupal.org/node/149551.
