I don't see how inventing a <clear> tag would be an improvement over
<div class="clear">: it doesn't add any semantic value to your
document, which is the whole purpose of tags. True, <div
class="clear"></div> isn't exactly full of meaning, but I would never
leave <div> tags empty anyway, and you could always add an ID or
another class to explain the purpose of your division. Something like
<div class="clear" id="article">blah blah blah</div> would do the
trick.
