No. If you eventually end up with a DOM that is like:
STYLE
#comment
#text
#comment
FOO
#text
#text
... it is unclear what the UA is supposed to extract from the STYLE
element to pass on to the styling system. The "type" attribute might
impose different ways of doing that though. With text based versus XML
based styling languages for example...
