This always rather seemed like a preference to me, one that gets
supported by consistency considerations (as some values would require
quotation marks).

Not considering the unquoted attribute value syntax a problem I’d
second consistent use in the spec but would object any further
changes.

(I know first-hand that omitting optional tags alone gives people the
creeps, but both optional tags and unquoted attribute values are valid
options for writing HTML.)


Couldn’t but add these two cents,
 Jens.
