I completely agree; the next version (Text_Markup) needs testing as part of the contribution process.

You guys should pay more attention to my posts about HTML_BBCodeParser. I already have code like that written for HTML_BBCodeParser, and it is not tied to XHTML. It already validates the correct nesting of tags. It can then "refuse" as you said, but it can also simply ignore bad tags, delete them, or correct them. The default is to correct the bad tags when possible.

Whoops, I misread this: I saw "tests" and skipped the rest. We need unit testing very badly, but I'm not convinced that markup validation is one of our goals; that kind of thing can be handled better by other tools.
