That's the point, surely? If you write good code, you don't need Tidy. But bad code might lose data.

Back in the dim, ancient history of EBook conversion (i.e. a year or so ago :-) when I was still kidding myself that automatic conversion from complex Word or Quark layout was feasible, I was trying to tame VERY messy code - and more than once lost text.
