> * Change the indentation behavior: I don't think we want to change the behavior that has been there for decades, though. The previous author also [preferred the current behavior because of algorithm simplicity](https://w3c.github.io/editing/ActiveDocuments/execCommand.html#indenting-and-outdenting).

We definitely can't change this behavior now. A lot of content depends on this behavior.

> * Change HTML. This was [once rejected](https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12609) but IMO is the way to go for web compatibility.

I support changing the HTML spec to allow this construct although it's not really a show stopper given all browsers interoperate anyway.
