While it makes sense to make button non-scoping for the purpose of mismatched end tag tokens coming from the tokenizer, <button> should be scoping for the purpose of implicitly closing <p>. That is, <p> should not get closed implicitly in this case: <p><button><h5>Foo</h5></button></p> Gecko bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=569528 36849 1 ian 2010-07-14 18:13:42 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.

Check-in comment: Make the implied </p> magic not cross <button> boundaries since doing that breaks a(n invalid) Ubuntu download page. Rename the 'phrasing' category to 'ordinary' since I keep forgetting that 'phrasing' is not an explicit list but is in fact an open-ended list. Merged the 'special' and 'scoping' categories since nothing distinguished them. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=5157&to=5158
