I kind of choked on my beer when I read about people legitimately using comments to close blocks. I considered a deprecation warning when a comment was found that closed a block and had no accompanying markup / real code to close the block at the same level so people could be scolded for such a weird practice.
Could you point me to some examples where people are using this feature legitimately? I'm really curious about it.
