Problem
Consider changing the styling or adding an icon to help differentiate between "pending" and "Internal notes" in a merge request.
Reported by GitLab team member that they didn't realize that they didn't submit their review

From @timofurrer
I just experienced a very unfortunate UX issues where a pending review comment to an internal note is no longer stands out because they use the same color. It would be nice if they don’t share the same background color
