There's a new removal error about to happen: <q>. Just as there may be
difficulties in edge cases of <ol start="0">, there may be some with <q> in
some i18n contexts, but is throwing the baby out with the bathwater
warranted here?
If the WG follows the same path for <ol> as it took recently with <q>, we'll
no doubt end up with something like ...
<orderedlist>
<li>1. Cats</li>
<li>2. Dogs</li>
<li>3. Rats</li>
</orderedlist>
No objections to adding <quote>, but I think the removal of <q> is a major
mistake.
