Comment(by hakre):

 Yes, and that's what this is exactly is about: CDATA and the comments.

 That's why I originally made that patch. When it comes to compatibility,
 usability and validity there is pretty much only that akward variant if
 you use the HTML mimetype - which WordPress is using at the moment.

 I consider it as best practice, but naturally it's completely free to
 adopt to that or not.

 {{{
 <style type="text/css"><!--/*--><![CDATA[/*><!--*/
 ...
 /*]]>*/--></style>

 <script type="text/javascript"><!--//--><![CDATA[//><!--
 ...
 //--><!]]></script>
 }}}

 HTML 2.0 rules btw.
