Description

If you have text in angle brackets (<like this>) in a comment, the GUI editor strips it out.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a page with the text editor with a comment line containing text in angle brackets, like this: ## This line has <text> in angle brackets.

  2. Either save the page and then reopen it with the GUI editor or use the "GUI Mode" button in the editor to switch directly to the GUI editor.
  3. The angle brackets (and the text between them) is gone.

Example

The following line is a comment with text in angle brackets. If you open this page in the GUI editor, that text will be gone.

But text in the normal course of events <like this> survives just fine.

Workaround

Don't do that.
