I've run into this case a few times already where I'll start to write a comment on a ticket, then after I'm done, I realize I want to edit the ticket fields as well, so I click the edit icon, only to find the reply I had typed out is now gone. Doesn't affect me personally too much, because Lazarus, but I can see this becoming very frustrating for users.
So, in short, I think if you have text in the reply box before you click the edit button on a ticket, that text should be transferred to the new reply box.

We just switched to Allura and I have run into several different scenarios where I lost all the text I had written. This has been as a committer when I was trying to update tickets opened up by our users. And, as a SourceForge user trying to open up supprt tickets. Just voting that this is very frustrating for a user of the ticketing system.
