Code comments should go in a Rietveld code review or a tracker message. 
Questions like the below on the tracker are ok, even if the issue 
(18104) is 'closed'. After a commit, there can also be a response to the 
commit message on the python-checkins list (though one may need to be a 
committer to post). In all three cases, the context is available.

The comment is obsolete; it was written when I was thinking only in 
terms of calling a widget class. I soon discovered that sometimes a 
wrapper function is needed (as in 2 of the 4 cases I tried and 
included). A corrected comment was already included in the module 
docstring. I just pushed a patch removing both obsolete comments and 
revising the docstrings
