the CDATA example at

http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/syntax.html#cdata-sections

isn't ideal (if any use of CDATA is ideal) as it is an example of a completely
redundant CDATA section, the content has no < or & so the section isn't quoting
anything. A better LaTeX example would be a matrix, as that uses & as the cell
separator, so using CDATA there would save quoting them all as &.

(This comment should not be seen as a blocker for the next publication round,
it can be taken as a comment on the next release)
