Actually it very explicitly says the opposite.  ;-)

Again see http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html

"The vector length is encoded; the vector contents themselves are not null

"5. Comment field 0 ([Comment field 0 length] octets coded from beginning of 
string to end of string, not null terminated)"
