OK. I (mistakenly) thought that this was required. To answer Andy's question, 
[tidy](https://www.html-tidy.org/) is a tool to validate HTML5 for various 
formatting problems which can cause problems with some browsers. The JDK team 
used to periodically run it on their javadoc, but I don't think it is run 
continuously. Jon Gibbons filed 
[JDK-8184220](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8184220) several years ago to 
"tidy" up our docs, which we did. This did not flag any missing `</li>` tags.

So: no change needed.
