| This is equivalent to:

| <object data="holiday.png" type="image/png">
|     <object data="holiday.gif" type="image/gif">
|         An image of us on holiday.
|     </object>
| </object>

... but they're not equivalent. In the first example, "An image of us on
holiday." is a paragraph. In the second example, it's an unspecified blob
of text.

That said you do have a point about one thing: why have both 'data' and
'src' attributes: they both have the same meaning. Perhaps rename the
'src' attribute on all elements to 'data'?
