I'd just like to note that 'inline' styling for <br> should be allowed.
I have been using it for a long time as spacing adjustment, and
sometimes for addressing extra unwanted space with double <br> entries
from wysiwyg, with the following rule:
<style>
br { font-size: 8px; line-height: 8px; }
</style>
To my recollection such styling was/is applied in all browsers.
Not sure if line-height is considered 'styling' in those terms, but just
want to mention that historical use case of applied styling on <br>.
