God I hope there isn't. I've often left comments in the wikitext when appropriate (e.g. "<!-- this is not a spelling error -->"), perhaps a note on talk would be good as well.
Agree, I don't see why there would be. Unless the comment text is unwieldy, or there is a *discussion* going on in the comment tags. Things like "This is not a spelling error" are by far *better* in comments than in the talk page. (what happens when that gets archived?) Assuming people are going to read the sometimes thousand-word talk page before they make an edit they think is a simple spelling mistake is ridiculous. :)
