AUCTeX has a variable named `LaTeX-syntactic-comments' :
,----
| User option: If non-nil comments will be handled according to LaTeX
|                syntax.
`----
In AUCTeX, it is mainly about filling and indentation, but in Org it
could mean "let the usual (interactive) commands pretend we're not in a
comment". If Org is to adopt such a variable, it could fontify
according to what the interactive commands will do.

Would that be acceptable ? It could be made a minor mode.
