We certainly did experiment with this, but the only viable (production
ready) solution is a metric ton of native php code, which is 10000x
slower, slows down the QPM severely (due to the way apache/php loads
in the code on every request) and crashing on other particularities
again, in other words not so terribly much :)
For comments we can certainly adopt a convetion to use comments on
newlines
only within Shindig if that helps.
Nah comments are no problem, all we need to do is strip them from the
content before parsing it, not optimal but certainly not so bad that i
would want to try to enforce such rules.
