I think what he's saying is that Moz used to tolerate a 
form like:

<select name="foo" />
...
</select>

...which doesn't make much sense (and appeared in the Zope 
UI by mistake). I believe that it is still ok to use the 
XHTML form for non-container tags, e.g.:

<hr />

The 'select' tag problem in the Zope UI has since been fixed
and the fix will be in 2.3.1 b2 (out today).
