If you don't disable them completely there is a way to make their
existence at least a bit more useful: If you remove the empty line
between the comment and the class declaration you can add
documentation right after the class name (do not remove the class
name):

{TSomeThing represents a something and maintains a list
of TWhatEver objects. It is responsible for doing foo and bar}
TSomeThing = class()
   ...
end;

Then it will display the contents of the comment in the mouse over
hints when you hover the mouse over any occurrence of TSomeThing in
your code. Lazarus will not touch the comment  anymore or move it away
or change it as long as you leave the class name as the first word of
the comment.

Apart from that I also don't see any use for these auto generated
comments. Especially the ones between the method implementations serve
absolutely no useful purpose. For quickly finding the implementations
there is either Ctrl+Shift+Up/Down or the code explorer.
