In certain use-case, authors of nodes need different (typically less strict) formatting options for nodes then for the comments they submit to nodes (i.e. also of OTHER authors).
This means that different (wysiwyg) editors are required for submitting nodes and comments.
So and as was pointed out earlier in this topic, the input formats for nodes and comments may be different and thus the defaults for both nodes AND comments should be configurable. I suggest to (in '{domain}/admin/settings/filters'):
1) rename the label of the current "Default" column to "Default for nodes" and
2) next to that column add a column labeled "Default for comments"

Also, a distinction is needed for these privileges of the 'better_formats module' in '{domain}/admin/user/permissions': "show format tips" and "show more format tips link".

@dragonwize: Really sorry! I somehow missed your instructions ("Go to admin/settings/filters/defaults ..."). Thx for your patience and helping me out.
