You are right; the current behavior is incorrect, and it's unbearable when (like in your case, I believe) the "Add closing tag when creating new tag" option in Tools > Options > Editor General is checked.
We will fix this in the next maintenance package.
Thanks.

At the moment it doesn't seem possible to use a hyphen or a dash in a comment unless that option is disabled -- even going back after the comment close has been added triggers a new second (and obviously incorrect) closing --> to be added.
