My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

Wish list item for me is a way to create a mini-forum or something so that instead of leaving comments per post that all comments actually end up as a forum post. I've got Gallery2 installed and the plugin to use the pictures within b2evo posts working - now if I could just find a way to make it so that people could leave a comment on a blog posting to a forum I wouldn't have to manage comments in both b2evo as well as gallery.

As a matter of fact... something that would allow the comment system in BOTH gallery2 and b2evo to use a forum system would be ideal, but I know when not to ask for too much. :p
