Here's what I'm hoping may be a simple one to develop: Upon activation, no blog comments from a Super Admin on any blog will ever get spammed again!
Oftentimes I find myself commenting on blogs, providing links to helpful resources for our members, and (almost) every time I must visit the blog's dashboard to unspam the comment. It would be just grand if there was a simple plugin that would automatically recognize any comment from a Super Admin (User ID 1) and ensure it does not get spammed.
In a perfect world, it would work with Akismet, TypepPad AntiSpam, WP-SpamFree, and other anti-spam plugins that may be activated on the blog. And if one were to take such a plugin to the next level, there would be a configuration option to add user IDs for members whose comments would also never be spammed.

Hello there jcnjr,
I hope you don't mind my moving this post over to the Feature Suggestions section as it is a feature suggestion. :)
I guess I didn't really think about that one before, but if you are supplying lots of linkage in comments, it make sense the spam filter would think it's spam. Good point.
UPDATE: Just noticed one of our bloggers had one of their comments spammed on their own blog (by Aksimet), and it didn't even include any links.
Perhaps the suggested plugin could keep this from happening too. Not sure how it work with Akismet and other spam plugins to auto-approve supposedly suspected spam (by the blog owner or site admin), but then again, that's why I pay for a premium subscription and you guys are the developers! ;-)
