Suggestion/Bug - Unable to collapse all child comments of a deleted comment.

At the bottom of this thread, there is a deleted comment. It appears there is no way to collapse all of its children. So, two suggestions:

  1. Allow users to expand/collapse deleted comments children
  2. Start deleted comments collapsed

Suggestion 1 seems like either a bug or just not yet implemented. For 2, I can imagine differing opinions on this, any other thoughts?

      That mockup is exactly what I had in mind. I missed that acknowledgement, thanks for passing word along! It is a bit nice that not too many comments have been deleted where it is much of an issue.
