Hello Jason, I think a fiels standard of code html-formatting is needed. In this case is it possible to do many tools used one standard. In another case no one parser can't work properly.
For create standard and make it popular big members must use and support it. I think it's possible and very simple. For example in our field Adobe declaration of AS code html-formatting standard is enougth for start support this standard by big number of developers.
