It's only a "political football" in the sense that most of the current committers would prefer not to work on the HTML tags. If other folks came to the fore and committed themselves to supporting those tags, including writing unit tests and answering questions on the user list, I don't think you would see much opposition to development in that area -- along with an eventual nomination for committer status for the individuals involved so that they can do their work directly.

Asking the existing committers to do all the work isn't the way to leverage how open source operates :-).

Asking the existing committers to apply patches (and add unit test cases that already work), and pestering them until they get around to it (or nominate you to committer status so you can do it yourself) *is* the way to leverage how open source operates :-).
