Leaving Tidy out will give other issues. Since there is no real alternative for Tidy (or so both Valloric and user_non specified and I believe them), it is really a loose-loose situation.

As apposed to tight-tight?

I agree that Tidy can cause an awful lot of issues if you've used some strange code but I can't live without it as (for me) it keeps everything laid out in a uniform way, so S&R is much easier to use.
As there is a lack of alternatives to Tidy, then we need more control of it available within Sigil, so as to customise it to our specific needs. But if I remember correctly, Valloric had stated that Tidy's code is an unholy mess, so I suspect that any modification to it for this purpose will likely take some time. As an 0.6.0 is looking like a massive rewrite of the codebase, this will have to wait.
