Let's agree to disagree Jochem...."pretty OK" is not in my vocabulary.....but striving for perfection is ;-)
An automated process cannot make the types of changes (which are human judgement calls) I mentioned. No process can say "hey that doesn't look right and I think I'll make it all caps for better emphasis".....or add whitespace....hard wrap a line...and so on.... ...but each to their own....just providing the OP with options and reasons why ;-) FYI...this has nothing to do with proper HTML (but I understand what you're talking about).
