COMMENT is a good proposal. However, for someone new to org-mode, it is
difficult to tell the subtle difference between COMMENT and :noexport:.

IMO, it is more intuitive that :noexport: prohibits *both* export and
evaluation, and if some code in a :noexport: subtree is to be evaluated,
then it should be named and called in some other place.
