My IDEa: HTML parsing & formatting within code comments: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ace-internals/pTcFXP...

So what happens if someone wants to embed C++ in the HTML in your C++ comments? (or just in general, having an early */ in your embedded HTML may cause problems.)
Sure, why not? Worked really well for E-mail.

Actually, if that's a route worth taking I'd rather see LaTex than HTML.

Or just Markdown.
