Wouldn't that only work if the json/javascript is pretty-printed and not minified? I'd think this problem of comments in JSON requires a solution that is part of the JSON specifications rather than dependent on individual parsers implementations. Or perhaps JSON only really shines as a data interchange format and not much else.
