BS comments like those within the function don't help, obviously - but
sometimes a comment block describing WHY a given chunk of code does what it
does would be nice.
I don't see any problems here. If anyone needs to know _why_ some function does
X - they should look on msdn.
Only that there is no guarantee that the information in MSDN will stay forever

BTW Alexandre, can we preserve references to bug numbers in patch comments?
Indeed that would be nice.
