HTML 5 proposes several tags which defeats the purpose of clear
separation of content with presentation/style and goes against what lots
of web standards advocacy groups have been relentlessly promoting during
over a decade. Restoring <font> is really bad IMO. Same thing with <i>,
and new tags like <m>; even <sup> and <sub>: all of this should be
replaced with CSS. Also, <embed>, etc Some others are questionable to
retain from HTML 4: e.g. <base>
Totally wrong, inadequate, incorrect, pure non-sense is the support for
pseudo-protocol "javascript:".
Maybe (in fact, I wish!) we should/would start a new, distinct, separate
thread on HTML 5.
