Perhaps a warning message/word of caution might be in order when the
Markup Validator encounters the <ins> tag...
> While it is *valid* HTML, it is non-conforming.
Just to make sure that I don't misunderstand you: What you are stating
is that using <ins> in the manner previously described is incorrect.

Thanks for clearing this up.
Sincerely,
Gerald Himmelein
