I fail to see that reasoning behind re-incorporating the deprecated
font tags, like <U>, back into the DTDs. I thought that way back during the
HTML 2.0 draft discussions, it was decided that <U> was rather evil, because
so many browsers used underline to represent links.
I think that <U> should be removed from the DTD. Perhaps, with the
changes to browsers, that re-visiting the debate over <U> may be worthwhile,
but I think we should strongly discourage people from using it.
