Comment on WordPress Gravatars by Mark.
I saw yet another recent comments with Gravatars plugin that had a feature that if someone does not have a gravatar it has a little suggestion to sign up and a link to gravatar.com. It has a question mark with a shaded icon to the left of the comment information form (name, mail, website, comment title).
It is based on the idea many people do not know what a gravatar is and need a nudge to sign up. It could open the link in a new window and be no follow (just kidding about the no follow, it would be part of the form).
There could also be a choice of displaying your Facebook icon also. I think this makes the Gravatar plugin a more complex project but I thought I would put it out there for back burner ideas.
I tried hacking a few of these things myself, but I see for it to be perfect, it needs more work.

Add Gravatars to WordPress Recent Comments Widget
Would it make any sense to display real faces via Gravatars in the ‘recent comment’ widgets?
Right now there is a little white/grey square to the left of the recent comment in the widget side panel.
What if this was a gravatar …
