Joining Barney, this is semantically wrong and should never be done.
If a visible outline or box to indicate a containing <div> is needed, and
further elements and content within it, it can be accomplished easily with
css. If you want an example, please let me know.

Kind regards,

It's incorrect and pointless. Why would anyone want to do such a thing?

Barney
