#5120: _wp_unfiltered_html_comment breaks XHTML validity

 When a user is logged in, the comment_form hook causes a hidden input
 field containing _wp_unfiltered_html_comment to be added to the page. In
 many themes, including the default theme, the comment_form action is
 within the <form> elements, but outside of any <p> or <div>. This is not
 valid in XHTML.

 One solution would be to move the do_action to inside the preceding
 paragraph, which already contains the comment_post_ID hidden field.
 However, this may cause problems with plugins that assume it is outside of
 any paragraph or div.
