    I think comment lines like .\"
    should still auto-fill, as the do now, though they don't actually come
    out quite right yet (neither before nor after this change).

It is ok for them to auto-fill if they do so in a way that
marks all the lines as comments.  Does it do that?

Otherwise it is better if they don't auto-fill at all.
At least that way they will remain comments.

Can you make that work right, one way or the other?
