I think we're here now to revisit the choices made then, in the light of experience with implementation and (even better, although not something we could have counted on) some experience with using the v3 vocabulary, provided by Miek. >>> that it >>> didn't like <br> because it causes the author to expect things that >>> might not be true in all renderers, such as in the middle of section >>> headings, as a run of <br><br>, and so on.

That's an arbitrary choice. Insert your choice of width, and remember that when rendering body text to html on a small device, the case could be similar to the case for a table cell. > Table cells can get very narrow, like just a few characters, and in that > case it can be desirable to control line breaks. No, it doesn't help the argument that you repeat the statement. I seriously want to be shown examples where <br> makes sense in a cell and not in body text. > FWIW, HTML5 *allows* <br> in many places, but says clearly that it's > only to be used when the line break has semantic meaning, such as in a poem. But doesn't that approach make more sense that the current limitation? Please note that my suggestion was to either remove <br> altogether, or permit it in inline context consistently. I don't care that much about which choice we make, but I still haven't seen any concrete example that shows why it makes sense to disallow it in one context, and not the other.
