So the heart of the issue is what is the relative priority as between (a) reducing variation between modes (b) having standards mode behave in a reasonable way HTML5 has given absolute priority to (a). I think there is scope for reasonable people (especially those not associated with browser vendors) to disagree with that priority.
Your link was very interesting. Back in April 2009, both Gecko and WebKit ignored </br> in standards mode. Now, thanks to HTML5, they interpret it as a break. Is it now the case that in a modern HTML5-compliant browser the only effect of putting <!DOCTYPE html> at the beginning is the last quirk you mention (<table> ending a <p>)?
