I do have valid use cases. We've had examples of important packages having been
pushed stable too quickly and breaking some computers (think kernel, mesa). The bodhi
comments can then be used to provide a description of the problem, suggest any workarounds
or fixes, and also link to more information e.g. in the bugzilla or common bugs wiki, etc.
The Bodhi pages are easy to find (if I perform a system update and the computer breaks, I
look at what was included in the last update, and look at any bodhi feedback for those
packages), so it makes perfect sense to inform people there. It's much harder to
search bugzilla to find issues with a particular package.
In this case its better to disable karma and just let users provide
feedback. Its really annoying to get just +1 karma on your package
when that package is already stable.

tweak email notifications somewhat (so that everyone is not spammed with each new comment
long after the package is pushed stable). That's what I assume annoys people.
