Validation? In order to allow xml:comment to appear everywhere we would
either to say that such element is stripped before validation or extend
every existing schema to allow such element everywhere which is quite
difficult in some schema languages (namely XSD 1.0). But if
compatibility of tools is not a goal, then this is of course doable.
