Description Yossi Leon

Consider the following lines in a new html file:
<html>
<body>
<p><table border=1></table></p>
</body>
</html> 

You will get in the editor "no start tag (<p>)" where this code is correct. Playing with it a bit remove the error.

I think this is dup of #149716.

I think it's less of a problem since this message is a Warning in 3.1, but it's still there.

Automatic promotion of invalid child elements has been removed in 3.2. This means that instead of getting the incorrect "No start tag (<p>)" warning, the problem message will be "Invalid location of tag (table)", which is a bit more helpful.
