 From time to time, people get confused by the disparity between the  
content models allowed in the DOM and the expressiveness of the text/ 
html serialization. I get confused, too, sometimes even though I  
should know this stuff.

I think element definitions should carry a note about text/html  
limitations when the content model allowed in the DOM and application/ 
xhtml+xml differs from what text/html is able to express.
