It's always been // and /*......*/ some how # slipped in and got 
forgotten about and I noticed people using it. I think it was done in a 
very early pre drools 3.0 alpha, and just lived on ever since. Trying to 
correct that now and tighten up on undocumented forgotten things like this.

That should work for java dialect, it'll still be broken for mvel 
dialect. If it's not, it's a bug.

Any volunteers to add generics support to MVEL? So we can get consistency :)
