Miller,

I just noticed this, but if you clear a comment of all of its contents, it comes back the next time that you open the patch as a "comment" comment.

this should be intentional. a comment that consists of an empty string is normally unwanted (if you don't want any comment, remove it). is still in the pd-file and since nobody would find it (invisible as it is) it would only make patches bigger and bigger. now, one solution would be to silently drop empty comments and not save them in the patch. however, i find the current solution much more polite.

Yep.. that's so you can see them (otherwise you can end up with empty comments all over your page and not know it.) Probably will go away with the GUI is more refined.
