details / summary is an important hack when writing bots that post comments to GitHub PRs or issues, such that the details are hidden unless the user clicks on it, and thus helps keep the comments tidy instead of each comment being really, really long.

It does, however, run into the 64Ki character limitation per comment. So HTML5 magic isn't by itself a magic panacea.
