Workaround for missing keep out area in module editor?

 

Hey librarian-team,

I would like to support this great project. Therefore I'm currently
working on a full set of footprints for the tag-connect cables
(http://www.tag-connect.com/). The datasheets are defining a keepout
area. Unfortunately, it's not possible to add a keepout area, using the
module editor. What could a work around look like? Could I draw on
another layer (for example Cmts.User) and add a comment to make clear
that one has to add a keepout area in PcbNew?

Thanks
Max
