Would this not collide with rules to implicitely close <a> in HTML
(not XHTML!)?

Anyway: The attached page behaves the same way in dillo as in Firefox.
OTOH, w3m closes the first, but not the second <a> implicitely. Do
you have other test cases?

(I haven't looked in detail at the specs, and it may be different in
HTML 5.)
