Introduce font-lock-comment-keywords which would basically work like
font-lock-keywords, except it's applied only to comments (with the buffer
narrowed to just the comment so that comment-start-skip matches correctly,
without needing font-lock-comment-start-skip). This way we could highlight
all nested comments in SML, or we could highlight the "*" used on some
continuation lines in some multiline C commenting styles, and people could
set it to nil if they don't care about the feature, and major modes could
add stuff to it, e.g. to highlight javadoc directives, ...
It sounds like a good method. However, I agree that this should only
be tried after the release. It would require additional work,
customizing various modes to support it.
