I think it makes sense.

The problem with reformatting the comments (or anything else) by hand
is that someone else who runs GNU indent probably won't do the same
hand formatting. If there's something you don't want indent to touch,
use /* *INDENT-OFF* */ (and later on, at the right point, /* *INDENT-ON* */.
