It's not about getting in all the comments, it's mostly about comments
describing functions / makros / typedefs / structures / global variables
and the like.

Comments in function bodies will just stay I guess.

However we could try to find some de facto rules about comments to get most
of the matches: For example a comment starting on column 0 of the line is
probably one you're looking for vs. one that has some whitespace at the
beginning is not.

Of course this would still need manual review for every file.
