Right now comments are either automatically approved no matter what or they must be manually approved.
We should add an option, much like WordPress has, to allow the option for comments to be automatically approved based on the commenter's previous history. The administrator has the option to set how many comments from the email address have to have been previously approved before they are automatically approved.
So, say, the option is set to 3, if the administrator has approved comments from the email ian@example.com 3 times, any comments after that with that email address will automatically be approved.
While this sounds like it could be easily abused, it does require that the user know the commenters email address which isn't displayed on the comment.
Yay, nay, or a modification to this idea?
