Here's a more complete description of the next steps...
When I opened the DOCX file on the iPad in "Mail", it gave
the choice of Word or Pages (as it should):

When opened in Word on the iPad, the comments showed up correctly:
 http://i59.tinypic.com/2h6df2t.png

When opened in Pages, the way comments showed up was colorfully 
funky, and unexpected, but usable (if less efficient):

But Word could be induced to do something similar as Pages:

I still haven't figured out yet how to get the Gmail app on the
iPad to bring up either Word or Pages, and, when I save the 
document, I have absolutely no idea where it goes on the iPad!
