Is there any reason why we shouldn't make this valid? 

/* 

sequence name = "John" /* testing */ 
integer age = 133 
*/

I personally am in favor of the above working. I'd like to know the reasoning against it? I understand that multi-line comments were not designed to comment out working blocks of code and that an ifdef could be used, but is that the best way? Why not allow it to be commented out by multi-line comments?
