Yeah I think so, Petal doesn't touch <!-- comments like this --> but it
removes ones <!--? like this --> which is handy for comments that you
don't want in the final output...

It's used in the documentation here:

  http://search.cpan.org/~bpostle/Petal-2.17/lib/Petal.pm

But perhaps it's not properly documented...

PS I found another Perl TAL implementation on CPAN while looking for
   documentation, it would be worth adding mention of this in the Petal
   docs:

     http://search.cpan.org/~tomi/Template-TAL-0.8/lib/Template/TAL.pm
