Well, epubcheck didn't raise a flag in either case, and it's pretty strict.
Anyway, Sigil deletes comments in the Manifest too. Does it when you open them so unless you crack the epub with another tool, you'll never know.
One I just got at random (
https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/56410) originally had this:
Code:
<manifest>
<!--Image: 530 x 800 size=113823 -->
<item media-type="image/jpeg" href="@public@vhost@g@gutenberg@html@files@56410@56410-h@images@cover.jpg" id="item1"/>
In Sigil the comment is deleted and the text URL encoded, to become:
Code:
<manifest>
<item id="item1" href="Images/%40public%40vhost%40g%40gutenberg%40html%40files%4056410%4056410-h%40images%40cover.jpg" media-type="image/jpeg"/>
Gutenberg uses pretty annoying and extremely long filenames, if I get one first thing I do is rename them all.
