Hi Mathieu,

There isn't any syntax for them.  In tree_format, they're handled
like this:

    # Comments, PIs, etc. (everything other than text and elements),
    # treat similarly to verbatim block:
    # - Flush any pending output
    # - Put out a break
    # - Add node content to collected output

    $self->flush_pending ($indent);
    $self->emit_break (0)
      unless $prev_child_is_text && !$self->block_normalize ();
    $self->set_block_break_type ("element-break");
    $self->add_to_doc ($child->{content});
