Really great! I agree, the feature wasn't in the right place but I can't think of a better place right now.

It could be part of a larger "save comments" feature in the future: as a user I'm able to save/bookmark a comment and see the replies to the comment I saved, but if I save an article to the reading list I can then follow all the comments of such article.

There's an issue about bookmarking comments opened by @flexdinesh :

Bookmark a comment #1038

Problem Dev has grown into an open-minded discussion platform for developers from all backgrounds. Often, discussions in posts grow organically. Some comments are worthy of being a post on its own. Some comments highlight important points and references for the reader. There were times I wanted to bookmark a comment but I ended up bookmarking the post because we don't have the feature yet. Now, when I go through my bookmarks, I couldn't remember why I bookmarked a post and have to go through all the comments (and child-comments) to figure out why. Also, if I quickly want to recollect one of the comments, I couldn't remember on which post it was.

Solution Ability to bookmark a comment and if it's not too much, I'd like to give each bookmark my own title/desc for reference.
