Simplifying, whether you infer an end tag based on the next tag name or whether it's explicit has no effect on streamability. "Error handling" does not necessarily make something non-streamable. Now there are some pathological cases in HTML that require a tree to do the right thing, but overall it's very much streamable and because the semantics are closely-coupled can be made faster than an XML parser. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
