IMHO it would make sense for the comment on a changeset (and only that) to be
settable even after the changeset is closed.  Then we could add comments to
older changesets predating the 0.6 API switch, for example, or mark a particular
changeset as 'mistaken upload, corrected in 12345', and so on.  The actual data
of the changeset should remain immutable.
