[Bug 10315] please allow "command" and "base" in "in head noscript" insertion mode so all void elements that might be handled in head-related insertion modes are treated in the same manner, which would simplify parser implementation a little

Working Group, please add the TrackerRequest keyword to this bug, and suggest
title and text for the tracker issue; or you may create a tracker issue

Status: Rejected
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale:

<base> is not allowed because having all the URLs in the document have
different meanings based on whether you're scripted or not is a debugging
nightmare.

<command> is not allowed because it makes no sense when scripts are disabled.

I suppose we could handle them in the parser while making them still
non-conforming, but would it really help all that much in the parser's
development?
