Parameter/Option 'comment' that will be threatened as content to enable full substitution power:

|comment=blabla example: <!--SUBSTER-val--><!--SUBSTER-val--> ...

that becomes e.g. with the value 'test' the comment:

blabla example: test ...

Implementation:

  1. threat the value in 'comment' like the usual content and do all substitutions there too
  2. use e.g. 'removeDisabledParts' from textlib to remove all subster tags (but keep the tag content)
  3. use the result instead of usual edit comment

May it would be better to use:

|comment=blabla example: <!--SUBSTER-val--> ...

in order to have a clear difference and prevent the bot changing its own template on the page too!

  • what if multiple templates present? -> go through all and take the last one defining 'comment' param - so they overwrite each other; last in - only one out
  • "do all substitutions on comment too" or just some specific ones? if all are done too; how to reproduce the original value in page content?

    ... msg = self.subTag(msg, ...)[0] #substed_tags += tags msg = pywikibot.textlib.removeDisabledParts(msg) ...

No answer on [1] so this might be intressting, but there seams to be no need for it at the moment.
