--- Comment #8 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> ---
To make progress on this we probably need to study cases where people (probably
unknowningly) violated the spec by nesting <footer>s, and see whether those
cases are cases where it's reasonable, or whether it's an error that they would
have caught if they used a validator.
