In the code base I'm currently working on there is code such as:

 # use the code from the regex 'Status: ([45]\.\d\.\d{1,2})' => 'x', # use the code from the regex

which PHP_CodeSniffer correctly complains about:

 5 | ERROR | Perl-style comments are not allowed. Use "// Comment." or "/* | | comment */" instead. 7 | ERROR | Perl-style comments are not allowed. Use "// Comment." or "/* | | comment */" instead. 

however, running phpcbf results in "0 fixable violations"...

Would it be possible for phpcbf to auto-convert # comments to // ?

PHP_CodeSniffer version 2.0.0

(Edited as I think Github's style was making things look confused)
