[textile] Exclude content between txp:hide tags from search results?

I’m using txp:hide tags in the body and excerpt field of articles to include notes and to “comment out” sections of text, but I’ve found that the hidden text remains discoverable via the search function and is output by the txp:search_result_excerpt tag

Is there a way to hide such content from search? Or if not, to prevent it from being output by txp:search_result_excerpt?

1. Not really. TXP search looks for its text inside not textiled and not parsed body, so everything therein is searchable. The “easiest” solution I can see is to replace <txp:hide /> by Textile ###. comments, and the default <txp:search_input /> with <txp:etc_search query="{Title,Body_html}" />. This will search in textiled body, with comments stripped out, but has some drawbacks.
2. Yes, if you replace <txp:hide /> by Textile ###. comments.

I may overlook something, though.

Edit: it was etc_search, of course, not etc_query.

Haha. Heads up: commented out text shows in the clear in the forum’s “reply to topic” notification email. ;-)
