No, the stuff about the // & /** styles was only for *generated* comments 
i.e. if the generate="true" had been used.  Depending on whether you're 
generating java or XML, they'd need different delimiters for the comments, 
which didn't appear to be catered for ("that would be generated between /* 
*/").

Agreed, I don't see much need for generate="true" either.  I just wanted to 
make sure that *if* it got implemented, it would allow for the XML templates 
as well.
