Please read again Malcolm's comment from that issue(or other of his posts
about this subject). I think he is right there.
Also that what most users ask are comments as in vertical propagation of the
DB comments to the upper levers (or in the opposite direction if the forward
DB engineering approach is used, as opposed to the more widely used reverse
engineering) .
For this "comment" support there's also a partial implementation that is
pretty advanced (i.e. UI in the Cayenne Modeler support is implemented),
just that it was made quite a while ago:
