Add comments from the .proto files to the output graph #4

Hi! It would be super-useful for me if comments I leave above fields in protobuf will carry over to the .dot (and .svg) file. Any way to make this happen? Would love to help with guidance

Hello and thank you for your report.

Unfortunately, there is no good way (that we can see) to render potentially large swaths of comments that a *.proto file can contain. We will keep this feature in the backlog of things to do.
