opened the developer tools and went to the DOM tab, clicked on the
`<html>` element and copy it into clipboard.  Then I've just
pasted it over the original HTML, and surprisingly all the
"closing tag" magic happened, while still keeping the original
source formatting.

That is great to know.  One of my big concerns about making
large-scale changes to the SRFI documents has been preserving
formatting.  That's just good manners towards the authors, and it
eliminates the giant diff that makes what was actually done
opaque.
