Can't wait for threaded commenting!

jonathan hit the nail on the head with his post above. The problem isn't just the people posting derailing comments but also those who respond to those comments. By responding to some off topic or ridiculous post you validate the post just as surely as if you upvoted it. By allowing tangential threads to be isolated by users pushing the "irrelevant" button we allow the main discussion to remain on track and allow those who wish to pursue the tangential discussion (valid or otherwise) the ability to do so.
