Tidy corrects this kind of problem without generating a warning, in some
cases it might not even be possible to warn about it since Tidy might
not yet know whether to treat the document as HTML or as XHTML. If you
want to check an XML document for well-formedness, it's best to use an
XML parser, not Tidy, for the task.
