Bug Description
So debian/control supports # comments, much like bash or python does, and comments are good! They help explain things to other maintainers. But wrap-and-sort just discards them like so much garbage. It should probably be fixed to preserve commented lines.

devscripts uses python-debian to parse the control file and that is what is dropping the comments.
