I ran into difficulty trying to automatically format C-style comments without a 
middle part. I was trying to set formatoptions automatically depending on 
whether the cursor was inside a comment or not.

My problem was that when in insert mode at the end of a line (e.g. after using 
'A'), synID() always returns zero, even if the comment region extends onto the 
next line.

I worked around the issue by using col('.')-1 instead of just col('.') if I'm 
in insert mode...but why do I need to do that?
