--- Comment #17 from C. Scott Ananian <[email protected]> --- Just recapping an earlier IRC discussion: my opinion is that the general form of this bug is too aggressive (globally rewrites the input too drastically) and unnecessary. I prefer to see local fixes such as the one in comment 16 that address the straightforward local cases (like merging adjacent <span> or other tags with identical attributes) rather than trying to find globally-optimal tag nestings (which may create surprising long-distance mutations which can also be costly to search for). My opinion may well be wrong. Hopefully the bugs linked as dups can be evaluated in this light; one of them may well be the killer case which simply can't be solved with a local transform and instead needs the resurrection of the global tag minimization code. I look forward to being thus shown incorrect. ;) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
