           Summary: Editorial: "Act as if" hard to follow

In the handling of p, li, dd and dt, the spec tells the tree builder to "act as
if" a given tag had been seen. It isn't quite clear what exactly happens in
each instance. The spec would be easier to follow if the "act as if" steps were
inlined and the always-dead branches pruned.
