Adding comments to Document templates

Adding comments to Document templates

I would like to ask for a feature request which can be useful for the blog post templates.

I've created a template with subheadings that is required for blog posts. (For E.g. Introduction, Heading1, Heading2, Heading3, Conclusion). 

Now, if i create a new document based on this template, I wouldn't be knowing what i need to write on Introduction, Heading1, Heading2 and so on). Obviously writers block! And I need to teach every new member on what to write on each sub heading. 

If its possible to add a comment or a greyed out content for each section, it would be great.


For e.g. In Introduction section, i can add comment as <explain the concept for initial understanding, add the goal what the reader would have achieved at the end of the tutorial and so on>.


When i create a new page out of it, then this comment or greyed out text will help writer on what to write for the Introduction.


For Example, DigitalOcean have their templates available here for writing articles. In each section they have the comments added on what to write for that section.

They have added comment inside the tag <!-- --> as given below. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Introduction: 


<!-- Introductory paragraph about the topic that explains what this topic is about and why the reader should care; what problem does it solve?In this guide, you will [configure/set up/build/deploy] [some thing]...-->

Prerequisite: 


<!-- Prerequisites let you leverage existing tutorials so you don't have to repeat installation or setup steps in your tutorial. Learn more at https://do.co/style#prerequisites --.-->

Conclusion:

<!-- Summarize your article, Post links to related articles that can help readers on what they can do next-->

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The main advantage of having such comments is, it can be a guideline to write each section of the article. This really helps a lot in writing the specific section. 

When exporting the article as a PDF or Markdown or HTML, or when publishing the article to WordPress blog, these comments should be excluded. So only the content should be published. 

This feature will be a super helpful one for the extensive writers. 

Please let us know if this is possible.
