[webkit-dev] Changes to line-by-line code reviews

[Adam Barth]

So, I have two thoughts on that:

1) We can certainly do that.  The trick will be making it discoverable.
2) I'd like the tool to read back in the state from the bug comments
and re-populate the comments inline in the diff.  That way you'll keep
the context and can have threaded conversations in the diff.
