I actually have a patch for this in one of my WIP branches, too :)

I didn't find these necessary for the build process and test suite. Are
you sure they aren't supposed to be provided by the application that
uses beautifulsoup4?

How about this:
"Beautiful Soup is a Python library designed for rapidly setting up
screen-scraping projects. It offers Pythonic idioms for navigating,
searching, and modifying a parse tree, providing a toolkit for
dissecting a document and extracting what you need. It automatically
converts incoming documents to Unicode and outgoing documents to UTF-8."

It uses the Expat license, and has some code from html5lib, which is
also Expat.
