BDO
BASEFONT
FONT
BR
FRAMESET
FRAME (except @src)
IFRAME (except @src)
ISINDEX
BASE (except @href)
STYLE

Status: Fixed

Change Description: 

Added the %metainformation; attribute set to the elements listed in the bug report. Double-checked to ensure that no other elements were non-conforming if they contained RDFa attributes. The DTD has been updated and will be included when the next version of the HTML+RDFa specification is published.

http://dev.w3.org/html5/rdfa/Overview-src.html

Rationale:

The intent of the RDFa Core specification is to ensure that all mandatory attributes are supported on all elements in Host Languages. The fact that the elements listed in the bug did not support the RDFa attributes was an oversight that has now been corrected. Thanks Toby. :)
