Yes, this is a nuisance.  I think we could have a special kind of change
for lines beginning with "--", since they can't be legal Smalltalk.

All of these would be very nice.  The first would be an easy tweak to
the multiple selection list view and morph.  The second could easily be
added to ChangeList, though it doesn't seem as important if you have the
first item.  I don't know about the third, but it sounds straightforward
once you've figured out what you are looking for.
