That wasn't the story. The story was something like "Mozilla does it correctly, but IE does it wrong, and won't change, so we have to change to IE's ways". So there is even less leeway. Anyway, we should bring all these things to the attention of the HTML folks, in particular Ian. They have their own ideas on <br> and they have their own guidelines on how to treat things with certain implementation conformance. Also, they will know how 'strict' is supposed to relate to HTML5. As for TR 20, I think we still need to change something. Because current browser implementation varies, we can at least for the current time not stay with the simple "LS is just a <br>".
