If comments are hidden behind a button, than the button should have at least
2 different visual states, to know from the first sight if there's a comment
there or not (without the necessity to press the button, open a window and than find out
that there's no comment there).
IMHO much better approach would be to have a "comment" field with an [..] button like one
is used in all GUI designers. Clicking the [..] button opens the popup to edit.
In the same time one can see if there's something in that textfield or not.
