b1ded6f85a Revise text about the level of DOM support, and provide pointers to
the work of the XML-SIG in the main body of the text.  Incorporates
changes made by Martin von Löwis in revision 1.20 on the trunk.

Modify the markup in a few places to avoid wrapping lines in bad
places, and just general cleanliness.

7b14ac97f0 Clarify that even though some of the relevant specifications define the
order in which form variables should be encoded in a request, a CGI script
should not rely on that since a client may not conform to those specs, or
they may not be relevant to the request.

45dabc58d3 SF patch #581414: info reader bug
The "Matching vs. Searching" Info node is unreachable from the Info
program (but is fine in Emacs's Info mode). This patch seems to fix
it.  This is the only occurrence where the info reader fails, so
probably it could be addressed in the python docs as a workaround.
Forwarded the report to the info maintainer.
