Forwarded to the MySQL Web team who's in charge of the user comment system. I know why the 404 occurs, and I've proposed a solution how to fix it. However, I'm not sure that solution can be implemented, because the comment system functionality is ancient (from 2000 or so) and convoluted. Setting the bug to Need Doc Info in the meantime because there's nothing else we (the Docs team) can do at this point.

Fixed (by the Web team, thanks much!). Stefan
