I'm shooting for at least five demerits. Otherwise, the week will be
completely sunk.  And yes, the parser would be conformant.  Abdera is
conformant even tho it is possible to use Abdera to produce and read
invalid Atom.  Returning the div in the "getContent" method is incorrect
and I'm fixing that now; making the div available for the application
using Abdera should be ok.  I want to make sure this conformance test
isn't saying that the parser must hide the div completely.
