Description

It would be great if media links from comments made by users on their own posts could also be extracted and downloaded as part of the "download" & "--user" options or as a separate option perhaps.

As an example, if JoeUser posts an image of his mountain bike into /r/MTB/ and later in the comments of his own post decides to post additional pictures to an imgur album and/or a youtube video of the bike, a really nice feature would be the ability to also scrape all of the media links from comments made by the post author.

The archive or clone functionality can be used to pull down the content of the comments but that doesn't extract media links and download those.

Thanks for this super useful tool, btw!
