The fragment tag is usually inserted if you copy & paste formatted text from MS Word, other word processors and Internet browsers.

Steps to reproduce this non-issue:

1. Start MS Word.
2. Enter random text, highlight it, make it bold and copy it to the clipboard.
3. Create a new epub in Sigil, switch to Book View and paste the text from the clipboard.
4. Click No, when asked whether the text should be inserted as plain text.

For example, when I selected the text of your last post in Firefox and pasted it into a blank Sigil document, I got the following code:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="no"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
