The "Comments" text box in the Friends list

I am curious as to what are the intended usage parameters for the Comments that can be left in the Friends list are; Who can enter them, who can see them, whether they can be cleared?

Reason is, I have a friend who had a derogatory message left in the comments that more than one person could/can see. I removed the offending text in my list but I have no idea if that would clear it from the rest.

    My immediate situation was resolved by combing my friend's list in search of the individual who posted the comment, they -like myself- assumed these comments were private.

    They are not.

    I'm unsure what purpose the comment's prompts in the Social Pane were intended to serve, but I find it highly problematic they are publicly available. To make the situation worse, we have no control over these comments, and cannot even see them. I was alerted to it when friends began messaging me about it; highly embarrassing.

    This is a concern, especially if a player can post potentially slanderous remarks about someone in that box and the public can see it. I certainly hope Cryptic has had the foresight to keep a tight filter on what can be put there.
