9789	Consistent comment support for INI files	edward@…	Vladimir Prus	"See ticket #5379 - semicolon was supported but hash was not in property tree ini parser, hash was added as a result of that ticket.

I am presently dealing with program options. In config_file.cpp, only hash is supported.

Please can semicolon be added for consistency within boost as well as other applications.

For example, PHP only supports semicolon (they have dropped support for hash which I am given to understand was always the lesser used character for commenting INI files). Many applications do not support hash.
