BK_USER, BK_HOST have been around forever but their use is discouraged for
the following reason: BK is a distributed system, we need unique names for
things, and the user&host are part of the name we make up.
bk comments is new and a darned useful thing, too, I'm glad Linus asked
for it. You just have to read the man page and realize that your updates
to the comments may not propogate.
