No. Allowing sloppy markup to render correctly (whatever that
means...) simply encourages web developers to write sloppy markup.
It would have been nice if all browsers would just crash when they got
to invalid markup. Yes, you read that correctly. Then developers would
be forced to write valid markup. Maybe I'm just an extremist.
