Jeff, thanks! Following the link you have shared I see suggestions how to make an IF statement using UserRoles and CoreNode ID's and CoreNode Ancestors.

With this I should be able to make a component appear for Testmembers when the current node is not a test environment and they are about to write a comment.

The real challenge will be to add a component to the postpage (start a discussion page). Can I even do that using the page and component editors in studio?
