*If* we're going to improve comments support (i.e. make comments real comments
like in programming languages), I can take care of the parser and even,
with some additional time, org-list.

But there's also the agenda to handle:

  * Headline
  # A annoying comment since agenda expects planning to be just below
  # the headline.
  SCHEDULED: <...>

And tables too:

  | a | b |
  # I really want to comment the row below, without breaking formulas.
  | c | d |

I'm not up for any of these two.

BTW, *if* comments are to become real comments, they should be allowed
even in source blocks. They would then become context free syntax,
which is much easier to handle. It would then be possible to rely a bit
more on newcomment.el.
