Backing out of a blank comment form shouldn't bother asking for confirmation

Say I start typing a comment, then decide to not bother. Instinctively I delete what I had typed, then press back. The UI asks me for confirmation to leave even though the field is blank. It should just go without confirmation if the field is blank.

I suspect it does this because it has a draft saved, but the current contents of the text box should take priority over a draft.

It also asks me for confirmation backing out of non blank comments even though I have drafts enabled. I don't think the confirmation should be needed in that case.

Yup, if it saves a draft then there's no need.

Looks like it does this even if I don't type anything, so it's not due to the draft.
