Make --html4tags the default?

[Yuri Takhteyev]

According to the document cited by Allan, "<br />" and "<hr />" are
not valid HTML4 tags.  I believe this is true.  Whether it matters is
a different question - most browsers seem to handle them fine when fed
"HTML4" and there some benefits in having the documents be kind-of
parsable as poor man's XML even if they don't fully conform to XHTML
specifications.
