Handle comment options in string?

def comment_options

This function currently expects symbols. However, Jekyll (a popular static site generator) uses a YAML-based config where config values are basically strings. The popular Jekyll assets plugin jekyll-assets takes those strings and directly pass them to uglifier, which is not uglifier expects. So there is some mismatch here.

I already opened an issue for jekyll-assets (here). However, I'm not sure if it's possible for uglifier to relax a bit and to detect and handle strings. Even though I believe it's downstream project responsibility to fix such incompatibility, a help from upstream may make things easier. If you wish you may click that issue link to see where exactly goes wrong. Hope you guys have some coordination.
