You might look into nikola:
- https://plugins.getnikola.com/v7/orgmode/

I've used it and think it's pretty awesome. I *haven't* used comments,
but they look possible:
- static: https://getnikola.com/blog/really-static-comments-with-staticman.html
- more "standard" options mentioned:

Not sure on what you want in #3 exactly. Like fill in a form and store
the answer? Or have a blank in the exported document that you somehow
store/get/use later? It brings to mind input fields you could have
emailed to you, or piping those into a database? The main point was to
make you aware of nikola if you hadn't heard of it...
