Why not let us see who has upvoted/downvoted our comments? It's frustrating when someone downvotes without explanation, especially if it's not an obviously stupid comment.
But all posters are not created equal - what if we could consider the source? If some guy with -27 karma downvotes my comment I could care less. If it's someone like Paul Buchheit, on the other hand, I have to consider the possibility that my comment was really stupid.
