I think that that should work.  See, if you think of \f as another kind
of newline, then it's perfectly reasonable: the next page starts with
a comment.  So how about just treating \f (and \v) as \n, at least when
outside a comment?  That way, something like "foo\n\f\;comment\n" does
what I would expect: the blank line is between \n and \f.
