Even better yet: Have the WC3 rephrase their demand that no element should start with a defective sequence (when considered in separate) as that no *block-level* element should etc., and leave things like <span>, <i> and other in-line elements free to start with a combining character (provided that the said in-line container is not the first within a block-level element, of course). That would, IIUC, address WC3's "fears" and would OTOH satisfy the need to mark up differently any part of a *text stream*. (Yes, of course CSS allows blobk elements to behave as in-line and vice-versa, buat that would be the user's responsability...) -- ____.
