FWIW, the original purpose of internal_comments was exactly what  
Toshio said - to give group owners or account system administrators  
the ability to keep notes that the user can't see, especially if  
their access hasn't been approved yet. (At one point, I had it so  
that you had to have your account approved, and not just access into  
particular groups, and it made more sense then.)
