Use case or problem
My workflow involves rendering notes using Quarto. This requires me to put links to other notes between HTML comment tags (<!-- [[link]] -->
) because I do not want them visible in rendered documents.
For some reason, links between these tags are not recognized as links by Obsidian.
Proposed solution
Treat links inside HTML tags (<!-- -->
) just like links outside them. Obsidian currently breaks these links for which I see no reason.
Current workaround (optional)
There is a workaround to combine HTML links with the percentage comments like <!-- %% [[link]] %% -->
. However, in this case Obsidian has a very bizarre behaviour: such links are clickable but not recognized as backlinks nor shown in graph view.
