When voting on a question/answer, should you be given the option to leave a marked comment?
By "marked" I mean a red
- and green
+ (simple; just small text). It would be based on the vote given, and would be just like any other comment. Adding a non "marked" comment would be the same as always. Please note marking would be very optional.
< Example of 'marked' comments.
My thinking behind this is that it would allow a voter the option to "leave a comment" (as it suggests you do when downvoting), while letting the reader know their comment is about how it should be improved / is not accurate, or (if unmarked) know it's most likely a confirmation / discussion / answer comment, without being distracting to users who don't want it.
Edit: This would be an optional, and less intrusive option, and it would decrease noise a +1/-1 would when normally done.
If you're worried about this cluttering up the comments system, I figured a comment would be marked if you clicked a 'comment now' link on the "consider leaving a comment" window that pops up when voting (I figure this would bring you down to comment box also, but definitely not new page).

Also, for both pictures, sorry about quality, currently using Windows xp and only have old paint version.
