You mean you don't like all the extra white space, bizarre wrapping and so on? Me either. I don't really have a good answer as to why we don't put it through HTML::Tidy, but my first guess would be performance, and the fact that messy html does affect rendering, it just looks ugly to people that actually know how to view source ;)
Maybe i'll try to put together a bit of a tutorial about how to make significant layout changes.
