[Bug 6774] <mark> element: restrict insertion by other servers

Correcting myself: <mark> has another value beyond having more specific
semantic value than <span>. Under section 10.6.2, a UA should show the presence
of <mark>ed content even in parts of a document not visible, such as by
highlighting parts of a scroll bar. It also encourages UAs to move quickly (to
cycle) from mark to mark in a document. I saw it before but hadn't acknowledged
it earlier in this discussion, and it's a useful provision. This is per
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/single-page/>, as accessed 8-12-09.

The basic need remains as before. Section 10.6.2 does not obviate the danger
implied by the kitten example.

Thanks.
