Hello Diogo,
From a quick look at those specs, I indeed see what whiteboard means, somewhat. It's a progress indicator oftentimes. However, I still think that "comments" could be useful because:

- I think whiteboard is just for developers to indicate their issues and progress along the way
- comments should be for users without privileges, and they are "comments on the spec", not indications of progress. Reversedly, the whiteboard is a bit messy to hold comments, I think it would be a good idea to [allow] to separate the two features.
- comments have their own user interface design
- from other launchpad modules such as malone, users "expect" a comment function, because of consistency;
- it would be better visually, as you can do a proper separation of the two

Just my random thoughts :)
