hr indicates a _horizontal_ rule. A separator is a better word as it
may not always be horizontal.

Mike, I suggest you read the design aims of XHTML 2 here:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/introduction.html#aims

XHTML2 is a much richer format that fits nicely with the semantic web.
XHTML1 has many drawbacks for people who want to express more
semantics in their documents.

For me, XHTML2 is a great format that does exactly what it says: "[a]
general purpose markup language designed for representing documents
for a wide range of purposes across the World Wide Web".

Peter
