<PRE>I am building a parser incrementally by sets of elements (and not all at the same time ) so while debugging I noticed that the text insertion mode does not have a &quot;anything else&quot; branch. Lets assume my input is the following: &lt;title&gt;&lt;head&gt;
The title start tag will lead us to the text insertion mode. And then what should happen ?  The specifications don't deal with this case as there is nothing that says what should happen in this case... I think I am missing something here ?
