I'm not sure how to measure whether one way is quantitatively better or worse
than the other. In general the parser was designed to match IE when browsers
differed and the IE behaviour was not unreasonable.

I'm happy to change the spec here is there is evidence that the spec isn't
compatible with the Web. However, I'm very curious to hear how IE handles these
cases. Is the behaviour specified here not actually a complete description of
what IE does?
