This would be a great feature. I would also like to have this feature.

Features go against the latest development release, which is 7.

And actually, we're planning on removing the node feature from core at #363623: "Minimum number of words" field on content types is not needed. So I can't see us adding in a new feature for comments at this stage.

This is something that's easily done in a contributed module. Dave Reid has some starter code at http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/sandbox/davereid/co.... I'm sure if you contacted him and said you were interested in turning that into a proper project to handle both node and comment minimum lengths he'd be very happy. :)

Thanks Angie.

Meanwhile I was doing some more research and found
http://drupal.org/project/validation_api
Which could be used, but have not gotten around it.

It would be nice to have some functionality like in the PEAR Quickform, which provides both client (via js) and server side validation for defined form fields. Perhaps with Fields API this can gain some focus. I was surprised to see this is not already in Drupal :P
