mlw-lt-track-ISSUE-118: HTML ITS default behaviour [MLW-LT Standard Draft]

http://www.w3.org/International/multilingualweb/lt/track/issues/118

Raised by: Felix Sasaki
On product: MLW-LT Standard Draft

We need to specifiy a rules file expressing default behaviour for HTML. It should accomodate
- settings in existing tools
- backwards compatibility (HTML4, XHTML ...)
- forwards compatibility (e.g. specifiyng the file, but having a link to an easy to update wiki with the "latest" rules)
- a should (or must?) statement about what ITS processors should (or must?) do.
- make clear that if a tool implements only one data category, it doesn't have to take defaults for others into account
- make precedence clear, that is relation of inherited values to default rules.
- anything else?
