It's worth considering what will readline history do with the comment.
As I recall, we keep /* comments */ together with the query that
follows, but the -- comments are keep in a separate history entry.
So that's one more reason to prefer /* */
(To me, that also suggests to remove the asterisk line after each query,
and to keep just the one before.)
