TBH I think that could become a formatting nightmare. If possible, I'd like to avoid schemes that break the comment threads.

One other thought: although you might not see the ignored comment, everyone else does, and therefore it can still disrupt the conversation.

How about a collapsed comment? So you can ignore the comment, but if it is important for the conversation, you can expand it and read it. A bit like Reddit with comments under the treshold.

That's not a bad idea, but I am not sure if it really discourages trollish behavior.
