comments, data in materials definitions

Is there any way to add comments or readable fields to a material definition? The standard header in the material definition file implies that one can add comments, but everything I try to add (beyond values for items in the predefined property list) just gets stripped out by WF2 when I exit the material editing screen.


I'd at least like to put in a comment with alternative names for the material (we are naming the material by a purchasing code, so I'd like to have the human-meaningful name in the material definition so users can double-check what they're getting). Ideally, it would be a user-defined property, that WF2 could report out using the material parameter, butI don't expectthat to be possible.


Any ideas?
