1 Additions 2 --------- 3 4 More of the jQuery API: nextUntil? 5 6 Optimizations 7 ------------- 8 9 The html5lib tree builder doesn't use the standard tree-building API, 10 which worries me and has resulted in a number of bugs. 11 12 markup_attr_map can be optimized since it's always a map now. 13 14 Upon encountering UTF-16LE data or some other uncommon serialization 15 of Unicode, UnicodeDammit will convert the data to Unicode, then 16 encode it at UTF-8. This is wasteful because it will just get decoded 17 back to Unicode. 18 19 CDATA 20 ----- 21 22 The elementtree XMLParser has a strip_cdata argument that, when set to 23 False, should allow Beautiful Soup to preserve CDATA sections instead 24 of treating them as text. Except it doesn't. (This argument is also 25 present for HTMLParser, and also does nothing there.) 26 27 Currently, htm5lib converts CDATA sections into comments. An 28 as-yet-unreleased version of html5lib changes the parser's handling of 29 CDATA sections to allow CDATA sections in tags like <svg> and 30 <math>. The HTML5TreeBuilder will need to be updated to create CData 31 objects instead of Comment objects in this situation. 32
