I don't understand this argument. There are two options: /++/ and 
/**/. If a user can't remember which one it is, it's a matter of 
a few seconds to find out. With all the things we need to 
remember about a language when programming, I hardly think 
something of this nature is going to put anyone off. And if they 
*are* put off by it, they've got bigger issues than trying to 
remember which comment style to use.
