I think strong & em will be merged but <em> in particular does have semantic meaning (rather than presentational).
<em>These</em> slugs are delicious. These slugs are <em>delicious</em>. Last time I paid attention (which was months ago) They were talking about use <section> & <heading> elements to mark up content blocks. For example: <section> <heading>This is kinda like an H1</heading> <p>Other content in here</p> <section> <heading>This is kinda like an H2</heading> <p>Other content in here</p> </section> <section> <heading>This is kinda like an H2</heading> <p>Other content in here</p> </section> </section> This would replace the h1->h7 (thank god) and would also address the breaking up of content into sections & subsections using a similar concept to nested lists. See the block text module http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-xhtml2-20030506/mod-block-text.html#s_block-tex tmodule for further details. Ackkkkk <hr> is still there!!! But there is a comment about removing or renaming it to <separator/>. The inline text module is also kind of interesting - http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-xhtml2-20030506/mod-inline-text.html#sec_9.7.
