After thinking a bit about the 'template stomping issue' I think Will is 
right. When I look at my comment-story.html, its pretty much the same as 
story.html anyway. I'll rewrite my html and css to work 'the Will way'. 
Makes sense to me not to have redundant html snippets arround.

I think before forking the plugin it would be a good idea to talk about 
it and make a feature list or so.

Something like:
what's allready coded
what's good for everyone
what can be made configurable
what's wantend, but not yet coded
...

then refactor the whole thing. Maybe make a comment-core plugin which 
can be used/extended by others?

any comments on this comment? ;)

cheers
Steven
