How can I fix or edit comment thread titles?
It happens to me all the time that I write a comment - as the first of a new thread of comments - and then either overlook giving it a title, or expect that the default title will be good enough and am then dissatisfied with the result.
Is there any way to edit the title of a comment thread, as the person who posted the first comment in it?

Curators have a new option on the Tools menu to rename a thread. In addition, non-curator participants in a thread now see a new "rename" control in the thread header, like this:
In this screenshot, "Regular User 2" is logged in. As a participant in the first thread, this user sees a "rename" button between "unfollow" and "collapse". This user has not participated in the second thread, so does not have the option there.
When a thread is renamed (by anybody), the system adds a comment indicating so, to preserve attribution/history.
