I like the idea, but I'm a bit surprised that there doesn't seem to be a clear way of "flagging" a comment, other than downvoting it. I suppose this is an indication that I'm accustomed to some sort of moderator, but this seems like a necessary feature to have.
Come to think of it, this is actually a really annoying problem. The implication would then be that some person (or people) claiming a certain amount of responsibility for the Publication would routinely check the flag-queue. This sounds like one of those things that seems like a tiny overhead cost, but in fact is extremely annoying.
