If we simply ignore </head> there's no longer a need to append elements to the head element pointer. In fact, we can remove it. I'm not sure how much this would complicate conformance checking, but it would certainly be very nice not to have such strange appending rules for the limited set of elements that have that now (<link>, <meta>, <style>, <base>).
Would <body> or elements that have to be in the body but not the head still implicitly close the head and open a body? In which case I'm not sure all the appending rules in the spec go away.
