We already match multi-byte comment characters in parse_insn_line(), thanks to the previous commit, yielding a TODO_COMMENT entry. But in todo_list_to_strbuf(), we may call command_to_char() to convert that back into something we can output. We can't just return comment_line_char anymore, since it may require multiple bytes. Instead, we'll return "0" for this case, which is the same thing we'd return for a command which does not have a single-letter abbreviation (e.g., "revert" or "noop"). In that case the caller then falls back to outputting the full name via command_to_string(). So we can handle TODO_COMMENT there, returning the full string.
If you do re-roll it might be helpful to emphasize that there is only one caller.
Note that there are many other callers of command_to_string(), which will now behave differently if they pass TODO_COMMENT. But we would not expect that to happen; prior to this commit, the function just calls die() in this case. And looking at those callers, that makes sense; e.g., do_pick_commit() will only be called when servicing a pick command, and should never be called for a comment in the first place.
I've checked the other callers and agree with your analysis. The fact that it used to die() also makes it pretty clear that this should be safe.
