This flag is passed in by the caller and instructs the parser to attempt to keep parsing even after serious errors? > I really think that a wrong count number of '-' in comments is a frequent > mistake and even if SGML suggest it is not ended we should not miss the > start tag on the next element.

Perhaps if the comment appears to be unterminated according to SGML rules it will be sufficient to fall back to the old parsing behaviour and just look for the first closing "-->" sequence. I will take a look at this behaviour and see if it is at all practical. (Introducing a new quirks-mode is still possible, but it would be nice to avoid the extra complexity if there is a simpler way).
