In the academic theme, the archetype files are helpfully commented like:

https://github.com/rbind/apreshill/blob/master/archetypes/post/index.md

--- # Documentation: https://sourcethemes.com/academic/docs/managing-content/ title: "{{ replace .Name "-" " " | title }}" subtitle: "" summary: "" authors: [] tags: [] categories: [] date: {{ .Date }} lastmod: {{ .Date }} featured: false draft: false disable_jquery: false # Featured image # To use, add an image named `featured.jpg/png` to your page's folder. # Focal points: Smart, Center, TopLeft, Top, TopRight, Left, Right, BottomLeft, Bottom, BottomRight. image: caption: "" focal_point: "" preview_only: false # Projects (optional). # Associate this post with one or more of your projects. # Simply enter your project's folder or file name without extension. # E.g. `projects = ["internal-project"]` references `content/project/deep-learning/index.md`. # Otherwise, set `projects = []`. projects: [] ---

But when I use the new-post addin I see:

--- title: Test author: Alison Hill date: '2021-01-05' slug: [] categories: [] tags: [] subtitle: '' summary: '' authors: [] lastmod: '2021-01-05T07:35:43-05:00' featured: no image: caption: '' focal_point: '' preview_only: no projects: [] ---

Can blogdown preserve comments in the YAML here? Oftentimes the comments are the 'documentation' for the theme.
