Recognize comments in tasks

[Calorion]

I often want to hide the text of my tasks, whe they're not relevant to the text around them. I've discovered that using Markdown commenting works brilliantly for this, like so:

- [ ] %%Here's my hidden task.%%

In reading view, the checkbox shows up, but nothing else. In edit view, the text shows up, but greyed out. Perfect.

However, one thing isn't perfect. On an obsidian-tasks all tasks page, such a task shows up like this:

• (Note title)

When I want it to show up like this:

• %%Here's my hidden task.%% (Note title)

Can this be remedied?

Can this be remedied?

No, it can't.

The Obsidian docs say:

Use %% to enclose comments, which will be parsed as Markdown, but will not show up in the preview.

And they give some examples.

And the Tasks page must render as Preview?
