If Hixie had added this element in the same batch as <section>, <article> and <aside>, he would have made the parsing algorithm similarly sensitive to this element. However, I'm inclined to advise against changes to the parsing algorithm at this stage (you have none; I am mainly writing this for Hixie), since it would move us further from a stable state for the parsing algorithm and, if the <main> element is used in a conforming way, it won't have a <p> element preceding it anyway. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
