I remember that long time ago on git mailing list there was discussed
extending git-apply and friends (including git-am), to be able to
ignore lines in patches with selected special prefix, different from
'@' for chunks headers, ' ' for context, '+'/'-' for added/deleted
lines. IIRC it was chose '|' for this purpose.
This way you could annotate patch

Was it accepted or dropped, or is this feature present but not
documented?

As I said on IRC, I think that if you are too good in the hiding-comments
business, you can just spare the time to write them, 'cause nobody will
find them.
IOW such a comment needs to go either into the commit message (if it is an
important API change), so that people who do not remember discussions on
the mailing list still have a chance to find the comment, or between the
message and the diffstat (if it is less important).
Ciao,
