Description
Not sure if it's a good idea, but sometimes I want to comment (a (b) c) out, but want to leave (b) uncommented. Currently, I would comment the whole thing (with #;) and then make another copy of (b). With quasicomment, inspired by quasiquote, I would be able to write:
#;(a #+(b) c)
or something like this.
(also not sure if this still makes sense in non S-exp land).
