Re: [whatwg/url] Parser generates invalid URLs (#379)

No? It's very easy to produce invalid HTML, e.g., `<b><div>blah</div></b>`. It's also possible at the syntactic level through APIs. HTML is really quite a bit worse at this.

It indicates that it might not interoperate to the fullest extent, admitting the reality that RFC 3986/7 and downstream consumers thereof exist. We could give that up and there are issues for tracking that already, e.g., #753, but that would be quite the change.
