Status: Fixed

Change Description: 

Added opening paragraph to User Agent Conformance section:

http://dev.w3.org/html5/rdfa/drafts/ED-rdfa-in-html-20100502/#user-agent-conformance

A User Agent is considered to be a type of RDFa Processor when the User Agent
stores or processes RDFa attributes and their values. The reason there are
separate RDFa Processor Conformance and a User Agent Conformance sections is
because one can be a valid HTML5 RDFa Processor but not a valid HTML5 User
Agent (for example, by only providing a very small subset of rendering
functionality).

Rationale:

Explained the difference between an RDFa Processor and a User Agent. The
example isn't as good as I'd like it to be... perhaps there is a better example
of something that is capable of processing an HTML+RDFa document, but is not
seen as a conforming HTML5 User Agent?
