As a fully rewritten browser engine, how will they handle malformed HTML? Will it, like other browsers, try to 'understand' and fix some errors or will it stick to the specification?

The HTML5 specification now fully specifies what to do in the face of malformed input. That's one of the biggest differences between HTML5 and previous specifications.
