When I'm declining events I cannot include a comment in the resulting message that meeting organizers will receive. It would be very important to be able to do so to explain why I can't attend.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive meeting invitation
2. Click "Decline" button.

Actual Results:  
Observe that meeting response is sent without Lightning/TB giving you the chance to include a comment.

Expected Results:  
There should be a way to "Reply with comments", i. e. a compose window should (optionally) open in which you can enter some comments.

I think this is useful, but I do not even know if the standard supports it. 

For example Zarafa http://demo.zarafa.com/index.php allows one to put a comment in tentative/accept/decline event actions.
