We had a lot of interesting posts lately to better handle comments and more exactly block of comments. I would like to inject a slightly different view:
Why don't we think of them as blocks of text with a border. When you think it that way now the editor should be in charge of extending the box automatically as we type. Moreover it should be able to float the text in the box just like a text box in Word for example. If I add words, IDEA would spill over some of the last words of the current line to the next. If I remove words, IDEA would take some words from the next line to fill the current line. Standard stuff that is a major pain to do when you update a comment block like a javadoc. However, to do that, we need word-wrap at the right margin... (IntelliJ guys, are we going to get this for ariadna?) We could use the Shift-Return to extend the box when we want to add a paragraph break within the comment. This would work on both types of comments.
