Allow an overall comment to be entered against a code review
Sometimes when looking at a code review making comments against individual lines is not appropriate. The implementer might have got the design/architecture or pattern wrong. It would help to be able to record a comment at a top level against the review to allow an audit trail without having to go through all the line by line comments. For example. Design and implementation ok, no security has been considered and there are weaknesses so needs rework. Minor code comments as recorded, but review abandoned due to high level issues.

Having the general comment against one file might still be hard to find. Both options would be great!

We have a bunch of improvements to apply to the code review system, so I'll add this to the list.
Not sure if we'll implement it as you point, or if it is enough to add a single comment to one of the files for the same purpose, but we'll check.
