Void elements, or singletons, like img, hr, br and others contain a closing forward slash in (X)HTML validation, e.g. <img src="foo.jpg" />.
When Typeset processes content with HTML, it is removing those closing slashes, e.g. rendering the above as <img src="foo.jpg">.
Closing slashes are of course optional, but:
a) I don't think Typeset should be messing with tag syntax in the first place.
b) In HTML emails, using closing slashes is recommended for cross-email compatibility in all their crappy rendering engines.
c) In my case, I'm using MJML, which uses void/singleton elements for things like mj-image -- and in that case a tag without a closing slash isn't valid.
My specific use might be an edge case, but I'm sure I'm not the only one formatting HTML emails.
Can Typeset avoid changing HTML tags?
