Message:

Comments: Mark comment text field as required.

Add required asterisk to the comment text field. Historically, the name and email fields are marked as required, but the comment text field is not, though it is actually a required field.

Props infected, solarissmoke, rianrietveld, afercia, sabernhardt, strider72, mai21, audrasjb.
Fixes #16206.
