Steve Rowe commented on LUCENE-5763:
------------------------------------

bq. Would it be useful at all to have a config option for the HTML version?

I don't think so - the use for this thing is generally HTML you don't control 
(hence the ability to handle non-well-formed content), so it seems very 
unlikely that people will know which HTML version they should target.  And I 
don't think we should have a mode where we output the HTML4 versions (left: 
U+2329; right: U+232A), because these characters are described in the Unicode 
specification as deprecated: from [http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U2300.pdf]:

{quote}
*Deprecated angle brackets*

These characters are deprecated and are strongly discouraged for mathematical 
use because of their canonical equivalence to CJK punctuation.

2329  〈  LEFT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET
\[...\]
232A  〉  RIGHT-POINTING ANGLE BRACKET

> HTMLStripCharFilter knows some specific things about HTML4 (like named 
> character entities, which are converted to the corresponding characters), but 
> not about HTML5.
> HTML5 has way more named character entities: 2,231 vs 259 by my count.
> There's probably other stuff to do, e.g. there are new tags.
