    Well, but what if a "string" is intended to be the text enclosed by a
    DIV object (or any other block level object) and therefore any SPAN
    tag (or any other inline level object) is treated by the relevant
    process as just an invisible, ignorable entity?

    This makes intuitive sense to me...
