In theory, Simple HTML throws out the SPAN tag, CSS styles, and a couple
of similar things.  In practice, it depends. I've seen one
implementation that threw out everything but a core of around 20 tags.
I've also seen an implementation rewrite CSS styles into every tag, then
throw away the CSS StyleSheet.

Ideally, either online documentation, or a user manual created by the
documentation team would list the tags and attributes used by Simple HTML.
