Thanks for this report -- next time, please consider sending 
one mail per bug/request, it makes issues easier to track.

It's a matter of taste.  I like this additionnal character 
and I think Carsten added it intentionally.

Unless many users think this is illogical, I won't change the 
default.

They _are_ freaky :)  But they are also needed.  

Even if the tags display is taken care of by the CSS, 
we must prevent collapsing the tags with the previous 
strings in case the CSS is not available -- just think
of what the HTML page should look like with w3m/lynx.

Fixed, thanks.

Fixed, thanks.
