1. Comments in -- style are too hard to mention cause they do not stop the
eye-flow as // vertical slashes do.
2. Comments in /**/ style are too easy to enter from the right numeric
keyboard, but {--} style require shift + some keys in the middle of
keyboard.
From phisiological point of view - putting the right hand to the right for
comments tells the body "i'm putting a comment", but putting {--} in some
way tells the body - I still type-in the code part.
I do believe that c++ and c-styled comments are not big deal to add, but
they are big deal in making haskell more rapid typing programming
language.
