There is, I think, currently only one glaring omission in Tidy. Many times, when we only want the *structural* markup, we need to get rid of **ALL** presentational markup leftovers, including the embedded style sheet. Right now, the closest we can come to that is by applying "clean" and "drop-font-tags", but that leaves droppings like this still hanging around: <style type="text/css"> /*<![CDATA[*/ p.c1 {font-style: italic; text-align: justify} /*]]>*/ </style> ... <p class="c1">...</p> To get rid of this you have to manually delete the style section and then do a regex search & replace to get rid of all the 'class=".*"' attributes. A strip-presentation: yes/[NO] option (or similar idea) would be extremely useful. And rather than have to set *two* options -- like 'clean' and 'drop-font-tags', which you currently have to set to get even part of the way there -- it should be a "one size kills all": get rid of all FONT & CENTER elements, ALIGN, BGCOLOR, & BACKGROUND attributes etc., and *not* replacing them with CLASS attributes and *not* creating an embedded style section.
