I have to agree with you here: a comment should *not* impact on the
result, because if it does, it is not a comment anymore, but a command.
It should be exported in the exporter as either a comment in the
resulting document (e.g %% in LaTeX, a comment or note in odt, ...) or
ignored in the exported document, but definitely not have an impact on
the *layout* of the document.
Cheers,
Rainer
