I want to be able to insert non-displaying (i.e., comment) text in a page. For example, a mechanically-generated (eg, index or transcluded template) page might have:

This is a mechanically-generated page. Do NOT edit it. For more information, see RichMorinBot.

Alternatively, a "report" page might contain:

The following transclusion brings in the Yada Yada report.

One way of doing this is:

<b _='this is a comment'></b>

or perhaps

<b _=' The following transclusion brings in the Yada Yada report. '></b>

but this seems a bit awkward. Are there any better ways?
