OK.
For leaf nodes with following siblings, people will have to use end tags,
as in:
<foo><bar></bar><baz></baz></foo><quux></quux>
If we want to start adding actual leaf tags, I'd rather do this in a
second stage, after we have a proof of concept. (I've so far avoided
adding any new tags to the HTML5 parser spec, but eventually there will be
a bunch we have to add.)
OK, I see.
The other issue are those 2000 entities that MathML has. You said that
you are not a big fan of a namespace thingy on the root <html> element.
Is is okay to assume HTML5 (with its <!DOCTYPE html>) as supporting all
W3C entities _by default_? We have a proof-of-concept of that in View
Selection Source, BTW. It will display any entity it can.

As VSS has underwent the test of time without major complaints, perhaps
<!DOCTYPE html> could assume that too? If that is agreed, we are all clear.
The other remaining issue might be with style matching because <math>
will then be internally in the MathML namespace whereas the HTML
document is in the none namespace (at present), but we will see how it
goes from there.
