Title:
  Comments in source files flood "other software"

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Reproduction case:

  Add the attached source file to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. You don't
  need to 'apt update' for this test.

  Open software-properties-gtk.

  Issue:

  All the comments at the top of the file are displayed, flooding the
  interface.

  Limiting the number of comment lines displayed and only displaying the
  full comments in a tool tip (GTK.Tree has a couple of set_tooltip
  functions) may result in a better user interface.
