Because even the W3C hasn't clearly defined what a definition list
is, so it's open to abuse...aeh...interpretation.

(looking at the spec, would you say that a dialogue is a definition
list? Do the lines that a character says "define" the character? Oh,
an almost metaphysical/philosophical question here...)
