This would add the the history page clutter and would need a good rationale. If it was to be done at all it would need to be collapsed by default.

Yes, default collapsing is a good idea. I think the comment function is really needed because so edit-wars and misunderstandings can be prevented.

I don't consider collapsing as a good idea. I am never ever going to understand why such a feature even was invented on MediaWiki. Especially Wikipedia is a project to inform readers and not to hide information from them.

That is right, but we have to find a solution not to litter (?) the history. But it's right, we shouldn't use JavaScript (and not like in the new watchlist in 1.18).
