- You are dead right, HTML is not supposed to be specific
- about formatting. If we started with justification, where would
- it end? (Actually, we started with <I> for italic, but there
- it ended.)
-
- Notice that even the line mode browser centers H1 headings
- and right justifies ADDRESS sections for example.
- I think that Mosaic for X doesn't because the text widget
- used doesn't have any justification or tabbing.
- There is no reason why a browser should not have the
- justufication style user-defined for each element.
- Cello allows you to tailor a lot of things, maybe that,
- (checks.) Not on my preprealpha version.

- There have been a lot of advantges in sticking to the
- logical markup rule. It has allowed lots of browsers
- to be creative and flexible in presentation, and
- has allowed for example TeX to be generated intelligently
- from a set of HTML documents. If explicit markup had been
- there, it would not have been possible.
