Context

This feature aims to add a one level thread level per comment. The incentive behind this is that a comment is considered a thorough review of a publication. In that context, having a conversation between the authors and the reviewer regarding the submitted review makes sense. The one-level single thread is a compromise between "no replies per comment" and "nested threading" that still keeps the focus of the commenting on the submitted resource but facilitates the interaction between authors and reviewers.
