Public bug reported:

So debian/control supports # comments, much like bash or python does,
and comments are good! They help explain things to other maintainers.
But wrap-and-sort just discards them like so much garbage. It should
probably be fixed to preserve commented lines.

** Affects: devscripts (Ubuntu)
