Why do we special case "break" and not give the same "comment is
emitted when the control reaches the insn in the todo list" for
others like "exec" or even "pick"?
Another comment with devil's advocate hat on is if we are better off
not adding "# this comment is emitted" at all, and instead do
pick ...
pick ...
exec echo this comment is emitted
break
pick ...
