I'd love for all IDEs to support notebook style computing where comment blocks just turn into proportional font prose, perhaps with optional markdown rich text. Tables, lists, etc. look way better as proper HTML instead of ASCII art intermingled with code.

> comment blocks just turn into proportional font

that would be horrific! Don't you ever use comments to pin-point to specific parts of a source line?
