Bug Description

I have encountered the following problem a few times.

I comment on a bug and then press the "Post" button. After posting I spot an error in my comment: I used a wrong URL linking to the wrong bug number or I misspelled a word.

A "preview" of the comments showing it as it would look after posting would be nice. This would allow me to click on URLs before posting avoiding links to wrong bug numbers.

Yeah, I've noted this more than once. The standard blog comment or wiki change option of preview one's changes is /really/ helpful. Especially since the formatting is different between different websites. For instance, sometimes links are created with Bug #1 or Bug 1 . Other times they need to be created with special syntax, like with a wiki [https://.../bug/url This bug]. Would be real cool to be able to preview comments.
