Its kind of tricky as there is no guarantee what the content of each segment is...
I suppose there could be a reserved hashkey that automatically gets ignored:
__rem__
this is the foo part...
__foo__
etc etc
is that what you were thinking?

No, I was just thinking of something along the lines of a 'if first character of the line is semi-colon, then ignore' style of comment. Easy to parse and allows bread crumbs in the forest...

What if "if first character of the line is semi-colon, then ignore" is a valid syntax in the embedded text?
Thats what I meant by being tricky - any special syntax you create on top, could interfere with whats embedded inside. Then you need an escape mechanism...which is a drag to implement for both author and user :-).
Commenting would be useful, but I cant really think of another way to avoid that catch 22?
