[whatwg] form markup

[Rikkert Koppes]

Well, suppose a personal information fillout form, i.e.:
first name, last name, initials, street, number, postal code, city fields.

Things that belong to a "set" (personal information), which is usually 
an argument to use a list (being ol, ul or dl) for markup.

While I value your personal preferences, is there any whatwg consensus?

Cheers,
