--- Comment #16 from csongor at halmai.hu ---
The fact that with Undo, you can reach a state which you normally can't, this
is obviously a bug. 


The other part of the topic is how empty comment boxes should be handled. I
admit it is surprising the first time and slightly annoying even after that but
there is an easy work-around for this. 

I put an easy-to-recognise text into the newly created comment box. For
example, two asterisks (**). 

After this, I go to the other place/application, put the content to the
clipboard and when I come back, Ctrl-Z and Ctrl-V does the job (to delete the
entered asterisks and paste the clipboard content).

I personally don't mind if the current behaviour gets changed and instead of
auto-deleting empty comments, a manual deletion will be required but I can work
with the current workaround quite well.
