Subtle difference. When the comment is posted, it shows up without the signature. Refresh the page and it appears. Not sure if it's hidden behind the comment box, or is missing until refreshed.

The comment shown is added by JS without knowledge of the template. The comment actually added to the topic is generated using the template. It's a performance tradeoff

I find the current behaviour in the Tasks web on trunk very very confusing. Could the JS include a link to refresh the page when the comment is a partial post? Any other ideas to feedback to the user that the displayed comment is different from the actual topic contents. Frame it in a block indicating that it's different? Can the entry form be cleared?

I like the idea of a button to refresh the page - or at least a message saying "this isn't the latest'.

Added a div and some styling, and a tooltip. Also made fallback to non-JS work again.
