Of course it can, but I apply this template against comments of which
xml validity I'm not so sure. Therefore if I do something like

<xsl:variable name="comment" select="saxon:parse(.)"/>

and my comment will contain
<!--
<a>
   some node set
</a>
<b>
   some other nodeset
</b>
..
-->

I'll receive document has no root element error. That's why
this pipelined workaround is applied.
