Personally, I’d like lines-around-comment to ignore comments at the head of a block and the last of a block. The behavior is same as newline-after-var and newline-before-return.

Specifically, if the previous token of a comment is an open brace, the rule don’t check lines followed by the comment. And if the next token of a comment is a close brace, the rule don’t check lines preceded by the comment. Those are checked by padded-block.

I’m going to close this as I believe this is covered by lines-around-comment’s allowBlockStart and allowBlockEnd options and there hasn’t been any activity in quite a long time.
