I personally prefer using h1-6 and do not see, why always using h1 may be better. Furthermore I think that using h1 in this case is quite irritating. The HTML 4.01 standard says the h1-heading to be most important, the HTML 5 standard defines it as having the highest rank. It is in my eyes

this is a misimplementation or is defined this way in the algorithm. Obviously this cannot be the expected behavior. The second title tag should be interpreted as a /title tag. Nikita Popov

Yeah, I think this dd, dt thing isn't really intuitive. (Looks like these two elements from definition lists are now used everywhere.) Your proposed syntax looks more nice. But still, why do we need the figure-wrapper? It would be cleaner syntax, in my eyes, if you could easily specify an

In the spec the use of the rp-tag is shown like this: ruby 漢 rp(/rprtかん/rtrp)/rp 字 rp(/rprtじ/rtrp)/rp /ruby What semantic function has the rp-tag? No. It is only styling for browsers not supporting ruby-text. So I think this element musn't be in the HTML5 spec. You can add the brackets before
