Like David Said ...
Or
<elem>{()(:comment:)}</elem>

Admittedly its one of the quirkiest parts of xquery ....
But makes total sense once you do a hand stand and put one foot on blue and a 
hand on red.
Atleast its not XSLT :)

Can't you do


<myelement>{((: a comment:))}</myelement>

To put a comment in (an empty list in an enclosed expression in) a direct 
element constructor?
