Breakages wouldn't ever be silent - they'd produce error messages - either inline ones, ones that prevent the actual saving of the page, or fatal ones.
Says who? What people are saying is that they don't want any error messages and want the parser to accept anything that's thrown at it and just do the best it can.
Yep. The present parser doesn't throw errors, it just gives you something odd. Throwing errors in a new parser would be unacceptable. "Everything I can't process just gets put through" would be acceptable, I'd think.
