Comment (by tscrim):

 Actually, I'm not sure that is true. How are block comments with `"""`
 handled? It seems like they are passed as a group to `preparse()` by the
 interpreter after stripping out `....:`. So here's what I believe happens:

 I type in
 {{{
 sage: def foo(x):
 ....:     return 5 * x
 }}}
 which gets fed to the interpreter, which results in
 {{{
 def foo(x):
     return 5 * x
 }}}
 which then gets sent to the preparser as a complete unit and becomes
 {{{
 def foo(x):
     return Integer(5) * x
 }}}
 Unless I am misunderstanding something?
