I've proposed such solution a while ago (I picked hsub as the name, but it could be anything like subheading, tagline, tinyheaderliketextbit) http://www.w3.org/html/wg/wiki/ChangeProposals/hSub I think it fulfils all reasonable use-cases of hgroup quite well (including subtitle before the heading) and has added advantage of being backwards compatible, easier to implement (doesn't complicate the outline algorithm) and doesn't restrict styling possibilities. I can't find the exact email with the decision about this proposal, but since it isn't in the spec yet, it hasn't succeeded last time :) http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/164 -- regards, Kornel
