For an example of how this might look, see the first screenshot posted at
<a href="http://drupal.org/node/187480#comment-632130">http://drupal.org/node/187480#comment-632130</a>. Both of these vocabularies are free tagging, but fixed vocabularies would look similar.<br><br>The comment_alter_taxonomy module that I will finish once the requisite patches to project_issue have been committed will handle diffing taxonomy terms for both free tagging and fixed vocabularies. Obviously in the case of fixed vocabularies a user would not be able to add a new term to the vocabulary itself in a comment.
