Agree. But if you look past that specific implementation, the gist of it is to look at comments as external annotations, enrichments, that provide a more layman narrative of the code. 

Another source of such narratives might be revision control commit logs.

An interesting thing to do might be to unify these various stories (the code, the annotations, the logs, the diffs, etc) into a more coherent and interactive whole.
