Usually, I address future-me with comments like that (on the assumption that there's nobody in the world sadistic enough to want to maintain my code). But I never name future-me, the comments will be addressed to "the subsequent maintainer" or somesuch. I do assume, though, that future-me has forgotten everything about the code, and since past-me left some comments that current-me has read, I think the assumption is fairly accurate.
