There is something like that for c-format strings (to force strings to
be marked as c-format strings, or to forbid auto-detection), but I
couldn't find anything about the comment stuff (and I looked in the
manual before posting my reply). 

We can always ask Bruno to add something like that to xgettext, though :)
