[geeklog-devel] [PATCH] Allow the comment form to be displayed regardless of speed limit

[Vincent Furia]

I'll dig into the code tonight and tomorrow and see what I can see.  I
don't think it would be difficult to get the CMT_saveComment to return
a speed limit error page.  That way you could hit the "back" button
and return to your comment and wait out the speed limit.  That
shouldn't break any plugin...  I don't know of any third party code
changes that actually change Geeklog's comment code.  Assuming that
assumption is valid we should be able to work something out.
