While this might very well have been true in 1998, all modern versions of HTML
are also valid XML with DTD's and Doctypes.  In any case, users expect to get
valid output, and often the reason someone is doing Save as HTML in the first
place is the document is going to be parsed.  It makes no sense to start out
with a document that must be valid xml and end up with invalid HTML

This is quite embarrassing.  I've been recommending that people upgrade to
Libre Office from MS Office, but in this case at least Microsoft is putting out
valid HTML.  I don't understand what happened, I don't recall seeing this with
previous versions of Open Office.
