    <thetext>HTML4 explicitly mentioned that definition lists could be used for marking up dialogue: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/lists.html#h-10.3

This was changed in HTML5 (see: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/Overview.html#the-dl-element) and this is not mentioned in the document that describes the differences between the two versions.</thetext>
