What I've taken to doing, since I noticed this, is to open a second browser to 
verify before reposting. For example, if I'm using Konqueror (usually), I'll 
open up Firefox. I'm not convinced that would always work, if it's a database 
replication issue as Derek says, but it has so far.

Also, another thing I've noticed is that if I'm replying to an issue and I 
modify the issue's settings, they will always show, even if my comment does 
not (which really confused me the first time), indicating that it went 
through.
