Summary

Once a comment or a reply is posted, its text cannot be edited. The comment thread UI exposes only Reply, Resolve, and Delete actions — there is no way to fix a typo or amend a comment without deleting it and posting a new one.

Steps to reproduce

Open a board and place a comment marker on any object.
Post a comment.
Optionally post a reply to it.
Click the original comment or the reply.

Expected

Each comment / reply offers an Edit action (typically restricted to the
author) that lets the user update the body text in place. The thread
preserves its position, timestamp, and ID; the UI may indicate the entry
was edited.

Actual

No edit allowed on either the top-level comment or replies.

To correct any text, the user must delete the entry and re-post it.
