It would be nice if this were the case.  But in my experience most
browsers, upon encountering an error, don't say anything!  They
just play dumb -- they try to display something approximate or
leave out the things they don't understand.  Or they make
assumptions about missing tags, and thus make you think
your page is error-free, when it isn't.
