Of course, there is no real di element. I simply noticed that the forward-compatible design of HTML5 seems to be "di friendly". As a result it should be easier to implement the di element than a CSS pseudo element. > The result will be "[object HTMLUnknownElement]" in all modern browsers, > even IE9. I get your point. This is the quintessence of di being no real element. But it is also simply an implementation detail which doesn't speak for or against any new elements. Kind regards.
