Thanks, but these are counter-precedents. XML C14N defines one very
normalized form of serialization which can be used if you want to
compare documents that might have differences only in a syntax sugar
(insignificant whitespaces, attribute order, ...), but their content is
the same. In this sense HTML5 is less canonical then HTML 4.01 because
it has much more relaxed syntax.
How exactly is the syntax more relaxed?
Parse errors are allowed to be corrected by parser:
[...]
That doesn't make the syntax more relaxed though. That just defines error
handling.
This was not case with HTML 4.01 specification (note I'm not talking
about HTML user agents here, which were very happy to correct syntax
errors for you).

P.S. Any reason why you are without noticing sending copy of this
message to www-archive and not to html-public mailing list?
What do you mean "without noticing"? I changed the subject line... Just
doing that because it isn't particularly relevant for the discussion at
hand.
