Thank you very much for sharing this useful post.

The list is extensive, but you should definitely separate the different HTML specifications. For example, <i> is no longer used in HTML5 and is replaced with the <em> tag. <b> is also replaced by <strong>.

We don't want to mix specifications even if they are grandfathered in newer revisions.
