[xquery-talk] comment out all the rest of the program

In perl all we need to do is
=bla
and then the rest of the program is effectively commented out.
In Xquery we need to use (:, and then go all the way to the bottom of
the program and put another matching :). I hereby propose something be
done about this... some kind of new directive saying ignore all lines
starting here.

You see I sadly miss the ability to add
# to comment one line
=bla to comment all the rest
without needing to painstakingly add the matching :).
