Looking very much forward to it... as you know.
But don't you think that the term "comment" is too general? The comment
text has a purpose, for instance
- comment to explain code
- comment for future implementation ideas
- references to design documents
- etc etc

In P5 I often us q{...} in void context -- P6 seems to be attaching tags
to the quote operator, so q:comment{...} might fall out naturally.

Isn't this what POD is for?

Or POD-ish is what A2 proposes. I still like
=begin FOO
...
=end FOO
And I'm in the midst of writing S26 (Documentation),
wherein I propose a standard:
=begin comment
...

I think someone might have mentioned it once. Officially you can use
# or make arbitrary POD sections.
But I'd like to make a new push for extra comment characters,
Perl6 could introduce (lexical, nestable) comment scope.
Has that been discussed before?
Maybe like:
#<<#EOC
# a comment line
# another comment line
#EOC
Or like:
#{#
# first comment line
# next comment line
# last comment line
#}#
Or POD-ish.
