      Issue Summary

      Reply permalinks fail to focus/scroll to the reply and instead load the page at the top. Comment links work correctly and focus on the comment; reply links should behave the same.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Add a comment to a page.
      1. Copy the comment’s link.
      1. Open it in a new tab — the page correctly loads focused on the comment.
      1. Open the email notification for this comment.
      1. Click the Reaction link — the page correctly loads focused on the comment with the new reaction.
      1. Return to the notification and click the Reply button — the page still loads focused on the comment.
      1. Add a reply to the comment.
      1. Repeat the same sequence using the reply’s link.

      Expected Results

      The behavior should match the comment case: the page loads with focus/scroll positioned on the reply, or at least, on the comment where the reply was done.

      Actual Results

      The page loads at the top instead of focusing/scrolling to the reply.

      Workaround

      Manually edit the URL and use the ID of the comment, instead of the ID of the reply.
