What is the difference between the new <section> and a <div> ?

The <section> actually carries semantic weight, and is meant to be
used carefully... the <div> does not.

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/mod-structural.html#edef_structural_section

Then again, XHTML 2 does have a <separator> element which is just like <hr>...

http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml2/mod-structural.html#edef_structural_separator

But you will notice that XHTML 2 has both <div> and <section>, and
<div> is weightless while <separator> is not.
