The new AST is able to store all comments, and the compressor and code generator will be able to keep most of them. However, I suspect that in general people will only need to store copyright notices, and those usually start with some special marker like "/*!". It'll be easy to add a configuration option to keep such comments, as long as they're not in code that's going to be dropped (for example dead code, like, code that follows a return, throw, break or continue statement).
