Is there a way to get warnings for HTML that looks valid with matching start and end tags but doesn't actually parse the way it is written? I get the impression that we end up needing to memorize those content categories even if we plan to only generate html with all the start and end tags.
For example, <p>A<p>B</p>C</p> looks like two nested <p> but it is parsed as 3<p> next to each other: <p>A</p><p>B</p>C<p></p>.
