We now forbid tags of the form `<foo ... />` in most places, and we also forbid it even for several void tags. We make exceptions for tags that are already formatted in two different ways in our codebase. This is mostly svg tags, plus these common cases: - br - hr - img - input It would be nice to lock down a convention for these, even though the HTML specification is unopinionated on these. We'll probably want to stay flexible for svg tags, since they are sometimes copy/pasted from other sources (although it's probably rare enough for them that we can tolerate just doing minor edits as needed).
