Making the filling code work in both LaTeX and Plain TeX mode will
likely be more time-consuming than adding support for separating
commented from non-commented content directly in Plain TeX mode.

If I remember correctly you refused to put the double dollars on a line
of their own.  If you did that, the filling code could detect them as
paragraph separators.
