right now, if there are new comments, comment_link() generates something like "w comments, x new" and links that /complete/ string to the start of comments (the comment "control panel") on that node's page (node.php?id=$node->nid#comment). i imagine this "w comments, x new" being split into /two/ links:

the first one being "w comments", linking to the comment "control panel" as before,

and an separate "x new", linking to the first new comment on the node page. url would be node.php?id=$node->nid#<comment-id of first new comment>.

Assigning this to myself so I remember to check and commit it.

Dries said he would take a look at this when he gets time.

2 weeks passed - time to get on your nerves again ;) ... anything happened to this? if not - couldn't we just include the patch and do the "long-term and more elegant
solution [...] to rewrite and restructure the comment module a bit" when time allows?

I've gotten lost on the comment module changes. Is this in now or not? If not I'll see what can be done about this again. *growl*
