Could I review your review of my review?

Some "reviews" actually belong in the comment section. I think the comment/review sections should be connected to the forum, for ease of seeing when new messages are posted and to facilitate moderation.

It would be nice to be able to respond somehow to points brought up in reviews...a new "review" as a reply wouldn't be appropriate, but posting in "Comments" would put your reply in the stream of the comments-section discussion and not connect it to the review.
