Jesus' suggestion of a hidden version field would help, but could be annoying for the case of someone writing a lengthy response, and having it discarded because the hidden version field is too old... so care would have to be taken to preserve such responses when doing the refresh...

I seem to recall that this already happens in certain circumstances. If someone else posts a comment while you are composing a comment, the user interface notifies you with a red box when you try to submit that the thread has changed. It prevents the post but does preserve the text you are composing.
