Now that the helpers support both HTML and XHTML doctypes, I'd like to  
see helpers for self-closing tags do the right thing, depending on  
doctype. For example, BR() would generate <br> or <br />  
appropriately, and similarly for HR, IMG, META, etc.

I don't quite see how to mechanize that, though....
