As an old XML hand (going back to 1998), I do know that.  But I am under 
the impression that there are some non-XHTML situations where the processor 
still wants to use the long form.  I think that the script element used to 
be one of them (maybe the only one), and strictly speaking, the short form 
isn't legal HTML (though the processors out there are awfully tolerant).  
So I tend to use the long form just to be on the safe side, even though it 
bugs me to see the long form for an empty element.  It's probably not 
needed these days.

Hmm, I should look and see if Docutils and MD are putting out HTML or 
XHTML.,,,[checks] Docutils is putting out XHTML, MD isn't specifying.  That 
would mean the it's effectively HTML, though I'm not sure if the browser is 
calling it HTML 5 or not.

I suppose I should check and see if MD can be persuaded to be more definite 
about it.
