How to fix Dashboard Comments moving?

When editing a dashboard in source code, I add comments using <!-- -->,  but after saving the comments move location. It is not consistent -- they generally bunch together near the top, but sometimes others are left in place.

This has been an issue for some time and is referenced here - https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Commented-code-moves-in-splunk-Dashboard/m...

I have tried moving the comments within different stanzas (<row>, <panel>, etc), and also played with the tab levels in case that was involved, however have not had luck.

It drives me batty.

Has this been figured out?

My Edits:

 

 

...
<!-- Some Comment -->
<row>
 <!-- Another Comment -->
 <panel>
   ...
   ...
 </panel>
</row>
...

 

 

 

Becomes:

 

 

...
...
<!-- Some Comment -->
<!-- Another Comment -->
<row>
 <panel>
   ...
   ...
 </panel>
</row>
...
