[COREblog-en] comment poster privacy issue?

Hi,

I just found out by accident, that if a comment is posted
with an email address, but _without_ an url, the authors name
is linked to its email address.

In comment_body there is

 if url make link with url
 elseif email make link with email
 else print author

I just removed the email part, as I think an annotators
email should never be exposed to the public as a possible
aim of a address harvester.

What do you think about this?

Ciao,
dev
