As opposed to html5lib which acts first as a tokenizer (i.e. without 
reordering elements, such as moving thigs into <head>) then adds a 
"html5parser" on top of this, ultimately calling out into a pluggable 
treebuilder of your choice.

I would assert that etree, Soup, dom, rexml, hpricot, etc. represent a 
diverse set of ways to process XML; and so far this design is holding up 
pretty well.

Just something to think about.  What you chose to work on, and where you 
chose to do it is certainly up to you.  My main interests are to see if 
we can grow a sustainable developer community and to build a 
comprehensive test suite.
