While I somewhat agree with your concerns I don't think providing some additional system that checks comments is a good idea (second suggestions). Especially across all communities.

Here is my thoughts:

* Such hint would annoy some users, myself included. The less system intrudes to communication between users than better. I'm tired of "clever" things that "knows" better what my intents are.
 
* Communities are totally different. What seems inappropriate for one can be absolutely normal for another. Moreover different rules can be applied to different categories within one community.

* Even if such system is implemented nothing can stop a user from writing a comment with many Qs.

It seems to me that you're trying to solve problem before it's even occurred. Maybe it would be better to return to this Q when it's right time?
