Sorry, I wasn't clear: the DOM with the "span" element can be created 
from HTML5 in the XHTML representation - but also from XHTML. That is, 
if a tool just "sees" the dom the tool doesn't know where it comes from. 
So should it assume from HTML5 (that is, withinText="yes") or from XHTML 
(that is, withinText="no")?
