  I don't support the idea of adding new keywords just to serve as comments.
If you want to comment your code, use comments. I personally use this style
quite a lot:

#while(a < b)
  some stuff here

  #while(c < d)
    some other stuff here

    #if(something)
      more stuff here
    #end // #if(something)

    additional stuff

  #end // #while(c < d)
#end // #while(a < b)

  (In fact, I use this style with large blocks when programming in C++ as
well.)
