Hey
The only cited example of real breakage so far has
been mismatched <div>s.
How often are you or anyone else adding <div>s to pages? In my experience,
most users rely on MediaWiki templates for any kind of complex markup.
I don't know how up to date this manual page is, but
mediawiki.org explicitly
states that templates copied from wikipedias may need to have tidy activated
in order to work properly [1]. The old Template:Infobox (before Scribunto)
sure did...
