some views relations would be helpful:
* the linked comment.
* the node of the linked comment.
* nodes that link to this comment (in comment views).

-----

An alternative i use on my own project is a nodereference that is auto-filled with the nid from the commentreference, using hook_nodeapi('presave'). this does also allow to choose to link either to a node or to a comment - makes a lot of sense for forum links. maybe this should be a separate feature request.

A D7 port won't happen in favor of http://drupal.org/project/awesomerelationship

I don't care so much about D7, just thought that all issues have to be filed against 7.x
My own use case is on D6, and awesomerelationship will definitely not work there.

@donquixote I honestly don't have a lot of time for more features for this module - in case you're interested I can give co-maintainership if you like - even complete ownership if wanted, than you can go code yourself :) Let me know what you think.

For my own use case I now have my own solution.
I have some other contrib projects to take care of and get into stable land, and a few others that are not even published on d.o. yet, but will. So commentreference would have to wait. But I'm not totally opposed, maybe I will find some time for it sooner or later :)
