Mislav,

If the point is that you don't need to worry about it because HAML
does, I can see some point to that. I'm sure HAML code is consistent.
But I think we should clearly be worried about having easily readable
and maintained output. I want to know that my clients can hire any
damn web designer they want next year without being tied to an extra
technology just because I liked it. That means means my HTML/CSS need
to be just as pretty as my HAML/SASS (though I don't actually use the
HAML side of that equation).

Self-closing tags aren't "required" in HTML5, but I always thought
they made more sense. I keep them in all my HTML5 code (most of what I
do these days), and it isn't because I have to validate as XML - it is
because it makes the document more readable.
