One sollution might be to add an option like "-n" when one wants numerical values on ports and ip-adresses.
I no '-n' option, it could look up that feild in hosts, networks, protocols and services and use the result from there. Then I guess the need for comments might be less urgent.

So instead of
Anywhere ALLOW 77.49.196.34
Anywhere ALLOW 123.240.238.117
22 ALLOW 192.168.0.120

we get

Anywhere ALLOW thomas.example.org
Anywhere ALLOW my2ndbox.example.com
ssh ALLOW johnsws.local

Which is more important when we get more IPv6 addresses.
