The advantage I see in this behavior is that it would be a cure against
runaway markup. When you forget to close a formatting syntax it would

Any objections?
Personally, I prefer incorrect markup "destroying" the page... this way
I know there is a mistake. ie. I prefer that a missing closing tag would
produce some noticeable affect, and not just behave like all is normal.
However as far as formatting markup goes, what you are now defining as
the rule, is that closing formatting tags are now only necessary when
formatting sections within a paragraph. They are unnecessary when block
formatting an entire paragraph. If that is considered valid markup,
then great, if not, then it should be treated as invalid, and cause
problems.
