Description
Currently we only show an uninformative tooltip with "1 unread comment" when you hover the icon. You need to click and open the sidebar for more info:
Instead:
- The comment text could show directly in the tooltip.
- Instead of the simple comment icon, we could show the avatar(s) of the people who commented.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the existing comment indicator, its tooltip, and the sidebar behavior described in the issue. Done means the tooltip shows the comment text and the indicator can show the avatars of commenters, with the interaction matching the referenced design discussion.
