Stefan,
the treatment of empty HTML tags has been fixed in version 0.4 of
Sablotron which is about to be released. The new version also shows
better conformance in issues like the (non-)escaping of characters like
< and & etc. A few rules governing the HTML output (e.g. the proper
output of "boolean" attributes) will remain for a future version though.
Thanks for your question,
Tom Kaiser
