Have you tried just an empty sequence?

{() (: comment... :)}

I was wondering if it would be possible to either:

  * Allow for an omit-comment option in HTML5 serializer 

  * Allow for {(: Nothing but a comment :)} in xquery code. 

I often have long pieces of HTML to output and clients don't want me to output them with the result. However, I can't use {(::)}. I have been using useless code around my comments just to get around this issue:

{

   let $t := '' return $t

   (: The comment I can't leave without the bogus code:)

}

Thanks!
