I'm not privy to the architecture decisions, but I'm pretty sure that
the absolute worst monstrosity is the possibility of opening markup in a
(possibly deeply recursive or, worse, conditional) template that is
closed in a different template. Getting it rid of /just/ that would
lose us no content (though it would break some frankenstein-grade
markup) and gain us a couple orders of magnitude in parsoid reliability
and simplicity.
And probably would make most of the VE team cry in relief.
