Make comment moderation more user friendly by showing the comment [#97310]

When moderating comments, the admin table found at q=admin/comment/list/approval is nearly useless because one has to browse to the comment in order to read it. This patch includes the comment in the table itself. To make the table orderly even with longish comments, the patch wraps the comment in a div with a scrollbar if it is longer than 512 characters.

Here's a screenshot of what it now looks like.

Feature requests should be against the development version - updating to 4.7.x-dev.

Moving to 6..

This looks rather inelegant / clunky and reduces usability with all the increased scrolling.. I would be happy with the comment (suitably truncated) being displayed in the title attribute of the link or with some jQuery magickery.

There is no moderation in Drupal 5 and no jQuery in Drupal 4.7. Moving it back to 4.7.

Well, considering that new features can't get into the 4.7 branch, would this be moot?

I took moderation in its general sense and I believe that this will still be useful.. Either way, I leave it up to you as to whether to set this to won't fix or move to 6-dev.
