I don't think <hgroup> will be used often enough to justify calling it
just <h>.
Ok, but what about <subheader>? (<subtitle>, <tagline>?)
The purpose of <hgroup> is to imply that <hx> is a subtitle. That's quite
an indirection. An explicit element would be easier to understand:
<h1>Dr. Strangelove</h1>
<subheader>Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb<subheader>
Also it could accept only phrasing content, so it would be easier for
validators to catch when authors confuse it with <header>.
It doesn't require changes to styling of <hx>, and can be given
appropriate size with "h1 + subheader" CSS selector.
