I seem to recall kleinbl00 requesting this feature before he left. Can I ask the benefit of doing this over an ignore comment feature?
I recall that he wanted a way to prevent people from following him. Maybe he wanted this too. Honestly, I am pretty sure he'd support this.
The plan is to have ignored user's comments fall to the bottom. However, the disadvantage of that is that it would only work well for top comments, and less so for replies. Also, since the ignore is just a filter, the trollish comments are still there for most users to deal with. Blocking a commenter has it's own problems, and there is a bit of Wild West to it. But if it came down to it, I'd prefer it over top-down moderation. A user could get power-hungry, but only within his/her own posts.

In a gory path of drama and whining. He may or may not have left a few poopy diapers in the corner.
