Comment Editing

This is a very minor issue which may not be easily resolved. Sometimes I need to capitalize a letter in a comment after it's been posted. Doing so results in an error, "The comment you submitted has already been inserted." That kind of edit is not recognized. To resolve the issue, I change the spelling and them make a bogus error, like adding a space charracter, which I then correct in subsequent edit. Apologies if this has already been addressed.

We have had the same problem
Usually it is possible to fix the caps problem and make some small change in the text, putting in 'a' or 'the' or 'and' or ',', so that we don't have to edit it twice.
