The feature in LyX I miss most when using other document editors is "Branches" [0].

I like to write thoughts about what I'm writing, notes to myself etc and keep them within the document, knowing they won't be output in the final file.

Word's comments never work as well for this. For reviewing they're fine, for longer prose... no.

ConTeXt provides similar feature called [modes](http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Modes) and you can imitate it in LaTeX using the [comment](https://ctan.org/pkg/comment?lang=en) package
