shift/ctrl clicking adds reply text to the comment textbox, doing the same thing

the behaviours should be consistent, one way or the other... I would expect the

well, we're executing an onclick js handler, which doesn't fire on right-click.
 In theory we could block the event bubble but I'm not sure if that would fix
this case.  Not a big deal, overall.
