None of these are currently handled in HTML.cc for either 3.1.2 or
3.2, so we need not worry about them yet, for this bug fix. However,
they are good suggestions to keep in mind for future 3.2 development.
I guess the rule of thumb is any tag attributes that contain plain text,
as opposed to URIs, numbers, or other "internals", ought to be processed
for SGML entities.
