html5 Living Standard — Updated 17 June 2011

FYI
here is the latest update on html5 17-06-2011
http://developers.whatwg.org/
http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/cu ... multipage/
Btw, here is what happens when the closing element(tag) is missing as in <section>...<section based on the 17-06-2011 update on html5 as well as others before.
From the above the 1st error being that </section and not </section> the error condition generates 3 additional errors which is in fact multiplicative as compared to being additive.
IF the 1st error is corrected then the remaining errors will disappear.
Therefore, IMHO this should be looked at as WB2011 does not present this as an error particularly when it reflects html5 as seen in the image below
