Yes, that would make sense.

But the only problematic comment is the top-level one, because that
makes the structure different than if the comment wasn't there.  Perhaps
we could just cheat and push any top-level comments one step down in the
DOM?  I mean, it's gross, but I don't think anybody would actually
notice in real life.

We could even document that that's what it does, and everybody would
have to be satisfied.  >"?
