Is there a way of highlighting comment edits?

Title. I often think of things to add to my comment after they’ve (presumably) been seen by the OP. Sometimes I end up making a separate comment because I want to ensure visibility. Any way to give edited comments a similar visibility to new comments?

    The usual practice is to write in the bottom: "EDIT: whatever you wanna add". Sometimes OP will go back to the comment, sometimes not. If the EDIT is super important than sure, write another comment.

    Not that I am aware of. But in cases where I want to make an addition to my previous comment that I think the OP should see, I simply reply to myself with the addition and include an @ to the OP.
