Agreed on the clunkiness of having a second link. I like both of your ideas, especially the "." to enter comment mode. In other places where that pattern has been use I think it has worked out well.
This could be generalized to slash commands if you find yourself needing to add a bunch of lesser-used options over time, e.g.
"\d" -> enter draft mode

Good idea, I'll add an issue for slash commands.
Related improvement idea: when you're writing a longer comment in the non-draft prompt and notice that you're running out of space, it would be nice to be able to convert the text entered so far into a draft.
In practice, it could work by ending the post with a special character, like a backslash.
Even if the user actually wanted a backslash there in the end (which seems rare), ending up in the draft composer isn't that bad as you can then just re-insert the backslash and publish.

Implemented in v2.0.

I would like to use the draft tool to compose comments, the same way I use it for submissions. Currently, I need to publish my comment using the short INPUT mode and then go in and edit my comment in order to add long text and links, etc.
