IBTD writing is mostly about content, but formatting can't be completely ignored either, particularly where illustrations are concerned. HTML doesn't even accomodate some of the most basic elements of formatting, like first line indent!

Yes it does. See, for example, <URL:http://pws.prserv.net/jwkennedy/Amelia%20%282%29.html>.

There is a need for a better system of web text notation, lets call it HTML2 and a rewrite of all browsers to accomodate it.

Until either the computer-using public or the US government grows a set of balls and defies Microsoft, there will be no improvements to HTML, because Microsoft doesn't wish there to be any. That's why progress stopped dead seven years ago.
