The submitted patch does not break any existing code

Perhaps I should have added: ... unless you have a really silly
commenting style.

Okay, it is a bit weird, but people do things like this. Wouldn't
those scripts break?

They would break, warning the user about an unterminated comment.
However, I suspect that it will affect only very few people.

I believe there are many "silly" (I don't consider it silly because it happens to the best of us) people out there and I believe that it will affect enough people for it not to be worth breaking it.
