You are completely missing the point.  It needs to be *MORE* than just
visual for Accessibility reasons.  While an <hr /> may not have any true
semantic meaning (in a strict sense), it is structural none-the-less; it
indicates a clean break between what proceeds it and what follows it.  This
"concept" is not hard to understand - it is neither ephemeral nor
hard-to-define.  However, it renders horribly in today's ultra-cool graphic
interface designs, and so designers/developers shun it.

Very interesting and very unconvincing. For one, HR can be styled, so not
too much problem for today's ultra-cool graphic interface.
As for "Accessibility" I am really interested how HR helps it, and how
it is rendered
in non visual browsers, and is this the best way of doing it.

And so the "way it comes to life" *is* important - it should be integral to
the source code.  The way it visually renders... Now that's where there is
room for improvement.

Ok, how about this improvement - give the section which must be
separated from the
previous one some meaningful header, but hide it with CSS, rendering
only visual separator, like line, three stars, whatever.
