Contributions add comments ability

Rob:  Is there any possibility of having a way of leaving comments against
peoples contributions?  This would allow an easy way of seeing how many people
have taken note of a piece of code, and also to give feedback on said code.

I realise there would be the possibility of some level of 'stupid' use of the
feature, but I think the advantages would outweigh that.  Currently the only way
people can comment is via this forum - or directly to the contributor, but then
others don't easily get to see what's been said without doing a search each time
they might want to download the code.

It wouldn't take much to do - a simple DB of a ref to the contrib, the comment
writers details (registered forum people only?), the date, the comment.  An icon
next to each contrib that opens a new window with the list of comments - last
entry first.

What do others think about this?
