Anything akin to BeautifulSoup's Comment? #62

Just curious if soup has anything similar to how BeautifulSoup lets your parse HTML comments in Python?

https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/#comments-and-other-special-strings

Trying to parse some HTML where some data is commented, and able to do the following in Python:

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup, Comment
comments = soup.find_all(text=lambda text: isinstance(text, Comment))
comments_soup = BeautifulSoup(comment, 'lxml')

Is there anything close to that here? Or any chance or adding something like it?

It's not there currently, but could definitely be a useful feature
