Re: Textile + Comments Plugin Request
Because nobody had asked for it when these things were discussed. And we can’t add options for every change we make, else you would see an option screen with hundreds and hundreds of new options with each release. Increasing the complexity and thereby making bugs much, much more likely.
For future versions (that is major releases) it is already planned to allow for more flexibility with respect to markup-languages that can be used in articles and excerpts and comments. In fact if you look at the code of the in-development versions you’ll see plenty of code has already gone into making this possible down the road. (And no, no estimates about any date can be made yet).

Re: Textile + Comments Plugin Request
nathan, txp ain’t just a blogging system : ) I don’t see why the public-accessible content creation tools should be crippled – I had a site previously which often had essays that required some decent formatting (in the form of headers and subheaders) as well as images and captions in the ‘comments’
edit: and also occasionally contributors would continue a work by using the comments rather than re-editing the article …

Shark’s fix in post #2 above is also needed to get the Automatic Acronyms mod working again as well.
