Comment(by Frenzie):

 I don't think base, basefont, frame, isindex, link, and meta are really
 the kind of elements that this function typically presides over? All of
 those except the FRAME element are children of the HEAD element. Although
 of course if it did run over those elements for some reason you wouldn't
 want it to incorrectly turn them into non-self-closing tags... ah never
 mind, senseless criticism. It all seems to be working fine, but I'll see
 if I can come up with some better tests tomorrow or over the weekend.
