--- Comment #1 from David Levin <levin at chromium.org>  2011-02-04 09:44:32 PST ---
Intentional behavior and specifically coded this way in fact.

The reasoning has been that NULL is not allowed in code so it doesn't make sense in comments. For example, in bug 53749, the comment says that a parameter may be NULL. That really isn't true because if code were to pass in NULL, it would be a style error. The parameter may be 0 in fact.
