To be honest, I was championing that parser writers should write flexible and supportive parsers and put strict ocd parsing under a flag/option. Especially in this case, where you need a parser that should be able to parse content parsable by a number of other parsers (-> browsers), you want your parser to be as accepting as possible or it's useless in those contexts.
I'm not saying "bring back `f()=x`" :) I don't see any point in that myself.
