Allow comments to be threaded chronologically, rather than grouped by source

[bpshaver]

What do you want to change?

I have an agent comment A, then I leave a new user comment B on the same line to respond to that agent comment. Finally the agent responds on the same line with comment C. But the order of comments in the viewer is (more or less) this:

A - "Agent note 1/3"
C - "Claude note 2/3"
B - "User note 3/3"

I'd like comments on a single line to be sorted chronologically so they can be more naturally read as a conversation thread.

Why?

This makes having a conversation with an agent on a code diff more seamless and interpretable. It lets me know when an agent has responded because I only need to look at the last comment and ask "did I write this comment?"

How? (optional)

No response

I agree. This should be the default as well. What sense does grouping by entity make in a back and forth?

Ideally the comments would be real threads, but chronological order is a good start.

Yep, makes sense
