Content of deleted comment:

Try this comment that I'm going to delete.

I use boost as it shows deleted comments as "deleted by creator", but you can reply to deleted comments and when you do you can see and quote it

Just like I have now. So what I assume is happening is that the backend just marks the comment as deleted and leaves everything in place, and it's up to the front end to handle that.
