Coming to this discussion very late. Maybe this has already been resolved.
FormatBlock should be dumb. It should not try to think about what the
author's intended semantics are. It should work on all block elements and
should just do the simple changing of the block from whatever type it
currently

IE just ignores as an argument to formatBlock, same as if
you pass or something. That matches my current spec, but
doesn't match any non-IE browser. Gecko and Presto both try to wrap
existing elements

execCommand("formatBlock", false, "") has the effect of replacing
the block elements with the given tag. For instance,
execCommand("formatBlock", false, "") executed on foo
turns it into foo. However, browsers vary in what elements
they accept as arguments, more or less as follows:
