Hm that's weird. Using ct:comment/1,2 works but doesn't always print the 
comment in the comment column when the test fails. Any idea why? It 
doesn't seem related to how long the test takes. It is however related 
to running tests in parallel. I'm guessing the test_server:comment/1 
function being async has to do with it. Would be awesome if it could be 
synchronous. :-)
