Eh? Who said ANYTHING about suing anybody?

I am hugely appreciative of this module, as I stated in my last message. For a
library that works with HTML and XML however, it would be very worrying if the
output of invalid markup was not considered a major problem. I'm certainly not
demanding the bug be fixed, nor fixed within any specific timescale, so I have
no idea why you sent me this message.
