Oh, that's an interesting idea! Ideally, I'd prefer to float them to the right margin (suggesting the Lisp style of line comments starting at column 78 or thereabouts, I guess), but this is an acceptable compromise. At first blush it seems to break the flow of the code a bit too much, but I'd probably get used to it reasonably quickly, especially in conjunction with grey comments and black text.
