view screened comment upon posting in the same manner as unscreened comments

Title:
view screened comment upon posting in the same manner as unscreened comments

Area:
comments

Summary:
When you post a screened comment, you're taken to a page that says your comment posted, it's screened, and you can view it at this link. This requires an additional click to check the comment for typos, make sure it threaded properly, etc. You should instead be taken to the comment in the same way you would be if it were not screened.

Description:
DW's reply-but-keep-screened setting is awesome but conducting conversations in screened comments is still more cumbersome than it could be because of this intermediate success-but-screened page. The indication on the entry page itself that a comment is screened should be sufficient to notify the commenter.

I detest interstitials like that.

What I'm describing is not an interstitial in the classic sense of, "Now here's a message from our website owners" nor, "Now here's some ads from our website's sponsors." It's a redirect. A real quick one. Have you never seen a classic 301? It's the difference between the website redirecting the page so quickly you cannot even stop it, with no messages or ads in between, which is all I'm envisioning, and what most people classically recognize as an "interstitial".

If you're also against classic 301s then my deepest apologies.

*shrug* I am perfectly capable of reading a changed tag or field on the comment when it reloads. What I am objecting to is the "Yes we did the thing you asked us to, please wait 1.4 seconds as we reload on you even if you were going to try to do something else".

Does that make more sense? My experience is not everyone's, of course.
