I don't think so: fill-region-as-paragraph is really the function that fills
"one paragraph". So to handle comments, the most important part is to
change fill-region so as to recognize that blocks of comments are paragraphs
on their own. I.e. it's the forward-paragraph and backward-paragraph
functionality that needs to be made aware of comments (and strings,
incidentally). Tho I'm unsure about the M-{ and M-} part: fill.el should
maybe have its notion of paragraphs.

I'd rather add something like fill-paragraph-forward-function should could
then be used both by fill-region and by fill-paragraph.
