** [tickets:#6786] Help text by ticket comment box.**

For any ticket tracker admins are able to create bits of markdown help text to
put on a 'new ticket' and general 'list pages'. It would be beneficial to also
be able to input some text that appears on the ticket page itself either at the
top (as with the other help text), or more usefully just before the comment box.
Example use case: On one of my projects https://sourceforge.net/p/tei we accept
bugs/feature requests for an international XML markup standard
(http://www.tei-c.org/). The comments added quite often contain XML markup and
so it would be good to remind those posting comments that they can escape these
by putting say 5 tildes before and after the code block. I can do this on the
general pages listing the tickets and the page when they are creating a new
ticket, but not on an actual ticket page where they might comment and benefit
from this help text.
Many thanks,
-James
