Replace all inline comments with block comments
It would be really useful to be able to choose the default comment style as either inline -- or comment block /* */, and have that style be applied when executing an auto-format on the script.

I would like the reverse option as well. While I can understand the argument for always using block comments, similar arguments can be made for inline commenting. Ultimately, using one style of commenting is not always convenient in every scenario.
