I feel like I'm thinking about the process incorrectly, and it's hard to search around because the discussions around 'org-mode comments' focus on org data for which authors would like to _prevent_ export. I saw some old conversations about making links to the hacked-in comment: URI scheme, but that seemed quite hackish indeed. I thought about making a block of a 'comment' type, but of course all the workflow for that is, again, focused on either preventing its export in the first place, or making sure that it's exported in a visible manner in the output. ("I want to print the comments in my LaTeX.."). So... am I missing something obvious? Anyone else trying something similar? - Allen S. Rout
