I would do it like this: use a wrapping stream to skip comments.

Then you can do as follows:
STON fromStream: (STONCStyleCommentsSkipStream on: 'Point[/* this is
X*/ 1, /* this is Y*/ 2] // Nice huh ?' readStream).
=> 1@2
STON fromStream: (STONCStyleCommentsSkipStream on: '// Here is how
you create a point:
Point[
// this is X
1,
// this is Y
2 ]
// Nice huh ?' readStream).
=> 1@2
This helper class would be useable in other contexts too (like NeoJSON).
The advantage is that it does not change the STON (or JSON) syntax
itself, it just add some functionality for those who want it.
What do you think ?
Sven
PS: this probably needs some more testing

I am not so sure we should add that.
The JSON spec explicitly does not allow comments because of fear
of abuse (that the comments would be used to add semantic meaning
outside the spec).
really? That's surprising. Comments in configuration files are very
important. Even more when the configuration files are templates for
new
users.
I know some people are using STON in ways that I did not originally
anticipate, that is of course cool, but writing configuration files
was not the original goal. STON is a version of JSON that is closer
to our object model.
Like I said, I will think about it.
