Dear Bash developers,
In effort to create better commented code, I have run across the following 
missing bit of functionality:
No block comments
Which prevents such useful constructs as:
echo    "foo" #! useful comment 1 !# \
        $(somefunction) #! Another comment !# \
        "bar" # standard line comment can go here

yum install \
        package1 #! why it is being installed !# \
        package2 #! why this one is needed !# \
        ...
        packageN # Reason for final package

Thank you for your time and consideration
