The current CSS won't work very well unless you support implied END-tags. For example the following: <P CLASS="A">Start of paragraph one. <P CLASS="B">Start of paragraph two. You need to handle tag omission to figure out where paragraph one ends and paragraph two starts. > And, obviously, (although I know you were joking :^), most browsers > DON'T use a "real" SGML parser.

I don't see why implemented $CANVAS as a special token is any easier than special casing BODY. Note that you really shouldn't be special casing BODY, but if handling OMITTAG is too difficult...
