I looked into this earlier and found two Python modules for it, one
using HTML Tidy and the other something else, but both depended on
third-party C libraries with horrible installation instructions so I
was never able to get them installed.  Also, HTML Tidy is designed as
a command-line tool and is kludgy to use as a library.  What we really
need is a pure Python validator, ideally one that gives the same
helpful error messages as the W3C validator.
