The problem here is, that what could be meant depends on how someone uses Tidy, if you just want to make the document less broken and retain the rendering of the document, Tidy would need to emulate common browser behavior, if you use Tidy from within an HTML editor to fix some typos, you would probably desire different behavior. So, any fix for these bugs would need to take this into account, retain the current behavior and provide a sane new configuration option that controls different behavior at user option.
