Etiquette
What is the blog etiquette when a blogger stops posting for a long time, and you don't know the person except as a commenter on their blog, but frankly you're a bit worried that things are not good and would like to express concern and so on? Presumably if the person wanted the blog readers to know what was happening they would blog. But you wouldn't want people to be thinking that other people aren't thinking of them, would you?

I don't think there is an etiquette. It's always okay to let someone know that you're thinking of them and miss their writing. If they have an email listed on their blog then try emailing them. If not then you always leave a comment. The don't have to reply and probably would appreciate the concern.
I'd go ahead and leave a comment--it would go to their email without being pushing. And if something is wrong, it would probably be cheering for them...
(and thanks, btw, for your comments at my place!)
I would comment. I'm always chuffed when people leave comments, especially if I haven't posted for a while.
I often think about sending emails, but then I can't imagine what to say.
