Comment 4 for bug 589091

What I understand is that the C code is automatically generated from the Vala one and this "generator" is stripping the comments.
Am I right?

If that's the case I don't believe that keeping the [Vala] comments is the solution, because C is a different language and vanilla comments, if not properly translated, wouldn't be of any uses.

This is more clear if you imagine a function documentation with a code example; a Vala code sample in a C library documentation won't make any sense.
