Yeah, but (as I think I documented somewhere in the Readme) this is a deprecated feature of the language, and one that I have only seen used in this one test example. I wouldn't worry about it too much, unless you (or a user) have some real life code which uses this...

Going through the open issues. I added support for comment entries in some expected locations to the grammar a while ago. So I'm closing this. If anyone still has other cases which need to be covered, please open a new issue with a sample.
