?Trick for creating a null TagElement just after /** ? [message #153535]

Hi

I have been looking for a way with ASTs to programmatically change
/**
*
*/
into
/** Summary
* body text
*/

but I can't manage to find a way. All I can do is

/**
* Summary body text
*/
or
/**
* Summary
* body text
*/

Should I file a bug? Cuz I feel there is a need for a new TagElement for
the very first line of the comment

I don't think many other people will find there is a need for this
functionality. It's pretty default behavious to have an empty JavaDoc
line at the start of such a comment.

As such, maybe file it as a requested feature at low priority. Even those
get fixed somewhere in the future. Or try to fix it yourself, and send
the code to somebody with CVS rights. Or this newsgroup, then it will
find its own way I guess.
