Thanks Nicolas, just a small detail though: unless this is a planned
(breaking) change, I believe the description you linked should read:

A “comment line” starts with *zero or more whitespace characters,
followed by* a hash sign, followed by a whitespace character or an end
of line.

Another detail: it could be nice to have a small appendix somewhere
mapping character names to codepoints, since Unicode has no less than
three “number signs” (from Wikipedia):

 - U+0023 # NUMBER SIGN (HTML &#35;). Other attested names in Unicode are: 
pound sign, hash, crosshatch, octothorpe.
 - U+FF03 ＃ FULLWIDTH NUMBER SIGN (HTML &#65283;)
 - U+FE5F ﹟ SMALL NUMBER SIGN (HTML &#65119;)

Thibault
