I edited my workflow and am in the process of creating a new screen for a step in my workflow. I would like this screen to have a comment box so developers can add a comment when the screen appears. In the "configure screen" page I do not see any way to add comments to a screen. How can I do this?

How to add "comments" section to a screen

New issue view - attachment missing person details

In the original issue view, in the attachments section, when you hoovered over an attachment it showed you who uploaded the attachment. This was a really useful feature, but sadly it's been forgotten from the new issue view with the file name shown instead. Showing the file name is fairly useless as the file name is already shown in the list.

So it turns out that a comment box is automatically added to screens. This is not documented anywhere I can tell.

You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.

Is there a way to VIEW all comments on such a screen? There's always an empty box to add a new comment, but it would be helpful to see existing comments as well!
