Using DTML comments has a different purpose than this.  The issue is to
make an object easily "commentable", but not in the same sense as using
DTML comments.  "Discussable" is probably a better term.  A
"discussable" object would be able to present a UI which would allow
people to add comments to a rendered document, and present those
comments to users whenever the document was re-rendered.  Just like
Squishdot.  Except as a general-purpose mixin class that can be reused.
