Not directly an answer to you question but here's a tip that may be useful
to you or others: I've recently switched to generating the xml config file
(for the ch47d project) (ab)using the C preprocessor and a Makefile. So I
put comments in the source file I feed to cpp instead, using regular c/c++
comments or #if -- #endif's. I find that very convenient. But most of my
notes go, as plain prose, into a separate textfile.
(The main reason for that setup, however, is to avoid doing a mistake I've
done too many times before: adjusting common airfoil/rotorhead parameters
for only one rotor with something completely unflyable as a result. Now I
just #include the common parameters from one single file instead of
changing two identical instances everytime. I didn't investigate the matter
at depth, but I got the impression that there is no general include
function in the xml standard. Many xml parser implementations add that
functionality on top of xml though.)
