It would be good if one could search for comments within a thread.

A viable, simpler alternative is a URL parameter that manually specifies the number of comments per page (e.g. “?limit=1000”), or the number of comments loaded initially when using bottomless scrolling. Reddit also has such an URL parameter that shows 500 comments by default (on old.reddit.com).

But Level 30 (9000 points) appears maybe a bit too high.

Also, the normal full-site post title search feature is available to everyone, and I don't think text-searching comments needs many resources.

Maybe regular expression search would need somewhat more ressources, but not comment text searching.
