Assuming that you are stream-based, the processor might see two stories,
and an illegal end tag.

This is not a good example though. Obviously you cannot hope to tune into
a stream of structured information in the middle without some necessity
for synchronization (jump to the middle of a frame of MPEG data, and see
what you get).

This is particularly interesting to me, because I have a proposal for
exactly what you outline above: realtime delivery of HTML and XML. An 
application built using my proposal would not suffer from the above
problem.
