This is a feature request to add permalinks to comments in gerrit.  Sometimes a change can go thru many reviews  and generate a lot of comments.  A nice feature would be to have a permalink to each comment.  That way users can provide a direct reference to the comment(s).

In the new side-by-side diff screen permalinks to comments are already kind of supported. At least you can link to any line in a patch, see [1]. Would be cool though if the linked comment is somehow highlighted, e.g with a different background color, and also the permalink should be offered somewhere to be copied into the clipboard.

That doesn't work because multiple comments are usually placed on the same line.  So you can have a permalink that references to a line  that contains multiple comments.  Also there doesn't seem to be permalinks to the message (or cover) comment(s).

Yes, I know! It's only very basic support right now.
