I just checked in IE10, and it looks like we actually do:
4. Allow comments, define that unclosed comments are automatically closed.
Behavior wise, this means that given the following OM:
<div id="parent">
<div id="child"></div>
</div>
The call: document.querySelector("#parent /* #child");
Returns the parent div successfully. I'm not sure that I'm thrilled about this
behavior, but it is what it is...
