I was thinking about multiple tabs and I think that they are actually a 
requirement in this case or at least not harmful.

Use case: 1 misplaced comment (with children)

Task: Move it to another node.

Procedure: Mark comment as "being in the process of grafting" by 
clicking link. Clicking sets a session variable and a redirects to the 
same page. This page will display the message. Now you can go to any 
other node and attach the comment there. It does not matter if you do 
this in the same or another tab. You only need to make sure, the tab has 
been loaded after you clicked on "prune".

Cheers,
    Gerhard
