That might be appropriate to some extent but I think a cluster of notes
like the above should be GitHub issues or something, or no-one will keep
track of them. Some of our other fine developers like spraying TODO and
FIXME in the code and then forget about them for good as if FIXME was a
magic macro that solved the problem. A Github issue is visible,
trackable, discussable and known by anyone who cares.
