Yikes. Hadn't occurred to me to just check ess directly, and I
completely assumed this was org related. Thanks for the reply, as a
google revealed this gem:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/780796/emacs-ess-mode-tabbing-for-comment-region

Short summary:
- # indents to the 40th character
- ## indents to the current indent level
- ### leaves the comment where it is

Sorry for the noise and thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
