I hate seeing data encoded into magic comments, struct tags included. One of my biggest gripes with Go is that I think they should have used a different symbol to distinguish important annotations from true comments.
Who uses struct tags for comments? I’ve never used or seen them used as anything except annotations as in tag:"value". And linters (go vet?) will tell you if you’re formatting them wrong.
