Now this gets confusing, so I need to ask...
Is this discussion about elements that has been given an initial
"processing expectation" as block or inline type elements (i.e. as per
available SGML based specs), or...
...is it about elements that has been given a suggested change of their
"processing expectation" through the use of the CSS 'display' property?
If it's the former, the only element that directly comes to mind would
be <OBJECT...
If it's the latter, anything goes of course.
(The reference from Matthew seems to indicate that he is looking at the
second alternative?)
