We currently don't have interop with IE and other browsers with regards
to what to send to the server as the value of <button>.
IE always sends .innerText as value.
IIRC it's innerHTML, but I can't verify it at the moment.
Is there really a noticable number of sites that rely on IE's broken
behaviour? I doubt, because:
* By sending contents of button instead of value, it doesn't provide much
more functionality than <input type=submit>.
* Styling of <button> is not an easy task, so it's unlikely to be used for
its HTML contents - authors rather use <input type=image> or <a
href="javascript:sendform()">
* And worst of all - IE always sends all undisabled <buttons>. This makes
value irrelevant, because you can't check which button was clicked anyway.
