One of the long standing problems with the HTML based browsing technologies is that there is no vector graphics format that can be relied upon by authors (SVG is not implemented by IE, and seems to have wandered off to become a Flash competitor, but MSWord has had a vector image format for a very long time, even if its authoring support has, some times, been poor). How does it handle MSWord documents that are not structurally marked up? I believe these cause problems for PDF tagging as well. (It is not uncommon for people to tab round line ends, and almost universal for them not to use the built in styles for headings, etc.)
