[ARCHIVED] GraphQL Comment Read Issue: Read = True No Matter What

I noticed an issue with the GraphQL SubmissionComment.read attribute: it seems that it is set to true when anyone reads the comment, meaning that the author sets read to true as soon as they post the comment. Thus, no comments submitted in SpeedGrader are ever unread.

The behavior we expected is that grader comments would be marked as read when a student reads the comment, and vice versa (student comments are marked as read when an instructor reads the comment).

Can this be fixed soon? It's part of our critical EdTech.
