Yes that is right, and what I would expect. If you add a letter/text string 
inside the <span>, before the <em> in the transitional mode test, you'll see 
that the display stops differing.

You can compare that to how, in transitional mode, a table-cell collapses 
completely around an image when there is no other (text-) content in the cell. 
In strict mode,  there will be a few pixels space at the bottom of the 
image/cell (room for descenders).
