Indeed. I dropped that functionality on purpose when I did the
simplification
and streamlining of the processing .. since I wanted to see if anyone was
using it.

I now have my answer :D

I need to have a closer look at the patch and run it through some tests
here, but  on my glance, you've done it correctly.

Send that patch to me, or I'll just do the patch myself .. since yes, we do
need
to add merge to the list of valid comments when processing the meta data.

I'll submit all the changes in my next consolidated pull request for the
kernels + tools.
