  if find(s,stop) then
    insideComment = false
    return cleaned_line .. currentfilter(strip_to_stop(s))
  else

as find returns a position, you can do things like this:

local stop = find(s,stop)
if stop then
  ...
  return cleaned_line .. sub(s,stop+#stop,#s)

(ok, you need to know the real unescaped length of stop)

for multiline we can plug into the texthandler instead, but it's not 
worth the trouble and the line based one permits selective enable/disable
