I see, thanks.

I've fixed the problem in Org by creating `org-comment-dwim',
which use comment-dwim when outside a source block, and
`org-babel-do-in-edit-buffer' (directly, not wrapped into
comment-region) when the point is within a buffer.

Aaron, thanks for your input and for testing this heavily.
