You disgust me
This is actually pretty genius, why haven't ever thought of that?
I liked the idea to be honest. I can just call the entry "description" instead and all is good ^^
How do you comment multiple properties separately?
Don't worry, I wouldn't do things like this in JSON. Nevertheless, it can be very useful to have comments along with configuration values, for example to explain the actual values (not their purpose) and why they were chosen. That's information you can't add to the code which processes the values.
