This does not match my testing. Both gecko and IE create an element with
tagName "div" for document.createElement("<div");
IE even supports
document.createElement("<div class=foo>");
which creates an element with a className of "foo". (any other attribute works
equally well). Gecko does not support this attribute syntax though.
I guess I don't feel strongly here. I'd be fine with attempting to remove this
quirk from gecko. Dunno how much success we'll have with convincing Microsoft
of the same though.
