RE: [sqlfairy-developers] Removing table comments from MySQL Parser [Attn. Chris]

[Ben F. <fa...@cs...>]

After thinking about this a little more, it seems that SQL::T should
keep true table comments separate from file comments.

Maybe in addition to the table_comments section, you could have a
table_file_comments and the same with field_comments.

This could be pretty tedious to add to all the parsers and producers but
it seems like the "right" thing to do.
