Oops, I think I misunderstood the 'placement' parameter. So thanks for 
pointing that out.

Nope, no dice. It only creates the comment page when a user is logged 
in. I'm testing this on a Windows machine, so there are no permission 
issues ;-)

It seems that UpdatePage in FoxUpdatePage returns different results. I 
know UpdatePage doesn't check update permissions, but I don't know what 
it does if you don't have them and proceed. 

I also spotted that UpdatePage isn't incrementing the rev #. Maybe 
that's as designed, but I would have expected it to.
