It seems to me that an important unspoken issue here might be described as whether HTML is a programming language or a markup language. Or to pop up a level, whether there is or should be a difference between a programming language and a markup language. My thought is that it is not be appropriate to think about HTML in "a programmer state of mind," rather it should be thought of in "a markup state of mind."
