> A jump list isn't an HTML document

A jump list isn't a bunch of metas either. An HTML <menu> or a specific, custom XML format can be ways to describe jumplists. These descriptions are then translated into whatever actual format jumlist specs use. No problem.

> I'm not sure describing it with html tags makes sense

A jump list is a menu. So is a <menu> element. You could hardly make more sense.

A jumplist menu doesn't support the content that an HTML menu lets you author. It's only a superficially sensible idea.
