 Replying to [comment:11 dylanfitzger]:
 > Site speed is of top concern for me. I use HTML compression on many of
 my sites, but this comment causes a lot of problems. JS Console error
 “Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input”. Simply removing this
 comment would save me a lot of headaches. Why aren't we able to fix this
 issue?

 Per [comment:9 SergeyBiryukov]:
 > It's not hard, but the same issue could happen in a plugin or theme,
 which would be hard to track down, so in the long run I think it's better
 to use proper minification tools that handle JS comments correctly.

 Any theme or plugin that outputs a single-line comment will face the same
 problem. Changing the script in core will fix this one symptom but the
 underlying problem will remain: the HTML compressor is faulty.
