Processing of <object><param /></object>

The following in the body 

    <object type="application/x-spt" width="250" height="250">
      <param name="button" value="push" >
      <param name="target" value="chair" >
      <param name="script" value="select *; color cpk; zoom 250" >
    </object>

Produces  from Tidy

   <object type="application/x-spt" width="250" height="250">
      <param name="button" value="push" />
      <param name="target" value="chair" />
      <param name="script" value="select *; color cpk; zoom 250" />
    </object>

But a second pass in Tidy discards the  <param> declarations.
Removing the  closing / in  /> inhibits the <param> removal.

Is this expected behaviour?  I would have thought a second pass
through Tidy should produce a null result?
