That shouldn't be an issue as long as you're using /++ doc comments and
not /** ones. If it IS a problem, I'd regard it as a bug.
(If I were in change of the world, /** and /* both would be compiler
errors, banned from all commits, and non-nesting block comments of all
types would be prohibited from all langauges upon pain of...well, pain.
They are spawn of satan and should never exist.)

*That* is a compelling point: Any embedded langauge (such as URL syntax)
where +/ is valid. That, and maybe any code examples or discussions
which, for any reason, intentially involve an unmatched end-of-comment.
