If I'd need to write my own parser to write an editor for it, that's one thing--but I hope I wouldn't need to create yet another ad hoc caption format, mirroring the features of this one, just to work around a lack of inline comments. The cue text already vaguely resembles HTML. What about <!-- comments -->? It's universally understood, and doesn't require any new escape mechanisms. -- Glenn Maynard
