If someone wants to write ugly code we can't stop him. But what's
wrong with supporting handwritten HTML documentation?
I'm not proposing using autogenerated HTML recursively populated with
divs by JavaScript. The only argument in favor of roff is widespread
deplayment of groff. That's not enough reason to reject HTML
documentation, in special considering widespread deployment of HTML
viewers.
