That was the original concept - see https://github.com/tbondwilkinson/dom-parts/issues/5. But there are issues:
 1. It's an odd syntax, and for HTML the equivalent comments would need to work also (e.g. `<!--?whatever?-->`).
 2. It doesn't work for attribute parts in any kind of ergonomic way.
 3. `<div {{}}>` is just so much nicer than `<?node-part?><div>`, etc.
