Not to put down your idea, but in what way is this not addressed? 
There are already free accounts for everyone to submit their own
content (not just comments, but anything that can be put in a member
folder) and access to wikis for everyone.

For a site devoted to advancement of a product, aren't wikis more
useful than comment pages?

New ideas are, of course, encouraged.
