This improves and standardizes the identity error. The same error is now displayed anytime the user attempts to write data to politeia without their active identity being loaded in the browser. The error message directs them to their user details page to fix the issue and provides a link to do so.

Good detail. Added a slightly compressed version.
A side effect of such mentions is it helps to raise awareness about user identity.

The username of the admin that censored or abandoned the proposal is displayed along with the reason they gave for the status change.

Maybe specify that this defaults to only allowing a single billing status change, but that this is a configurable setting. If an admin makes a mistake, the sysadmin can temporarily update the setting to allow for the mistake to be corrected.

2638 is also a notable PR. It fixes a handful of comment navigation UX issues that occured when navigating back and forth between the full comments section and a single comment thread. Issues that were fixed:
- Comment filtering preferences (top, new, old, flat mode) were being lost in between thread navigation.
- The "Go Back" button was not working properly.
- Loading indiviudal threads was slow due to unnecessary requests being sent.
- UI flickering was occuring during navigation.

Thanks for the clarification. I extracted comment navigation fixes into their own bullet with some compression (Pi section is getting beefy, which is great).
