--- Comment #6 from Maxim Monastirsky <momonasmon at gmail.com> ---
The reply command is disabled for your own comments. The author of the comments
in the attached file is "Unknown Author", and it considered to be you likely
because you didn't set a different name under Tools > Options... > LibreOffice
> User Data.

It worked like that since forever (e.g. Edit > Comment > Reply Comment was
disabled, and the reply command wasn't available in the comment's right click
menu), but particularly for the comment drop down box it was accidentally
broken for a few releases, so in Bug 125146 I fixed the broken code, restoring
the original behavior.

I have no strong opinion on whether replying to your own comments should be
allowed, but: (a) the change should be a result of a proper ux discussion, (b)
it should be properly implemented, and not be an accidental result of a broken
code, and (c) it should be consistent between the commands of the drop down box
and the main menu.
