Wow, I just went back and looked at the cite thread. That was
bewildering. I don't see a direct connection here, though -- cite was
needed for very specific academic purposes, with very clearly-defined
needs. Comment is much floppier: good for anything from notes-to-self,
to notes-to-editor, to notes-to-no-one.
*None* of the complexity is in the format itself: if you unloaded
org-comment, the comment links would be perfectly human-readable. All of
the complexity is in helper functions for manipulating them. I suppose
it would be possible to define some non-link syntax for them, but why do
that when the link syntax works perfectly well?

Ah, that's a good point. cl-lib isn't necessary, just convenient, and
could be removed.
Thanks,
