comment-dwim is great, it has one wrinkle though: it places the
comments in column 0. So if one comments out a region in a C function
and then reindents the function, all the comments will be indented.
Wouldn't it be better if comment-dwim would try to put comments at the
right indentation level so that reindenting would become an nop?
(I don't know how feasible this would be, but asking doesn't hurt :-)

I agree. It would be much better this way.

C-h v comment-style RET

PS: This issue of "comments in column 0" was one of the original motivation
for writing newcomment.el. You'll notice that every style other than the
default one addresses your request. The default style was added late in
response to Richard who insisted that "comments in column 0" should be the
default style, which partly defeated my efforts since very few people know
of comment-style.

I think the default style should be 'indent.
