Yes!

It’s super annoying to comment sometimes because in the middle of the comment I’ll want to see the thread context, but it’s impossible. And there is no draft, so you get a popup to cancel, accept and lose all text, read the thread again, then go back to comment. Yes of course it’s partly possible to copy / paste a comment, but I do find the process very annoying.

It should ideally be easy to read the whole comment chain you are replying to while commenting.

That's actually slightly different than what I'm suggesting, but it's close to my other feature request about having a "show parent" button.

What I'm suggesting is that the parent comment (your comment) shows when you view the response from your inbox. Basically like how Reddit does it when you go to the response from your inbox.
