[openbox] comment in rc.xml

A xml(?) problem:

     1	    <keybind key="C-S-c">
     2	      <action name="Execute">
     3	        <execute>chromium
--proxy-server="https=127.0.0.1:8118;http=127.0.0.1:8118"</execute>
     4	<!--        <execute>chromium --no-proxy-server</execute>-->
     5	      </action>
     6	    </keybind>

The second <execute> line (line 4) is commented out. The idea is to use privoxy
usually, and disable proxy ocasionally (when privoxy misbehaves). The problem
is that this file is not accepted when trying to reload the openbox config: it
says the comment is not terminated. Trying to comment out line 3 instead shows
the same problem. What happens is that the 2 dashes in --proxy-server or
--no-proxy-server are causing all the trouble: leaving just one makes an
accepted, albeit useless, directive. Bug in openbox config system? (My
knowledge of xml is rudimentary at best.)
