Description
In my HTML code I had a reference to a view which is not created yet, so I had that line commented out.
But I still got NoReverseMatch error, until I removed that line completely.
This is not my expected behavior. The template backend must recognize HTML's comment tags (<!-- ... -->) and ignore them.
I use the default backend.

You could use Django comments, e.g.
{#% url ... %#}rather than HTML comments. The Django template engine doesn't parse HTML and even if it did, making HTML comments disable Django template tags doesn't seem appropriate.
