Research direction
Reproduce the behavior with rustfmt 1.10.0-nightly using the reported use std /* goodbye */; snippet. Trace the import-formatting path that removes the comment and check existing formatter tests for a suitable regression-test location. Done means the comment is preserved after formatting and the regression is covered by a test.
