Most proxy-type services seem to run everything through Tidy anyhow.

I can't think of any uFs I'm aware of that wouldn't 'work' in HTML,
although some of the nesting features wouldn't work if people did (for
instance):

<p class="vcard"><em class="fn">Ciaran</p>
<p>McNulty</em></p>

(which I think is valid HTML)
