Note that you haven't actually commented anything out. When you change the content of an element constructor from

<a> <b/> <c/> </a>

to

<a> (:<b/>:) <c/> </a>
So to achieve the intended effect (no nodes where <b/> is, not even a comment node), one would need:

<a>{(:<b/>:)()}<c/></a>

?  That's a lot of punctuation.

I think this has been batted around here before, but would somebody mind refreshing us as to whether there is any good reason plain {} doesn't generate () (an empty sequence)?
