One idea that might help, would be to put any conditional output in a div 
or span, and assign it a special class, e.g. "pdf-only".

Then all you need is a pandoc filter that removes all divs or spans with 
that class. That would be a generic filter that I think a lot of people 
could find a use for, and it's just a few lines of code.
