Comment (by kurtpayne):

 Replying to [comment:8 scribu]:
 > I don't see why extensive editing of the existing markup would be
 necessary. Just use the same markup everywhere, since it shouldn't matter
 if the info comes from the readme file or from wp.org.

 The rules are tied to specific element IDs which are written out by the
 `plugin_readme_information()` and `install_plugin_information()`
 functions.

 The `plugin_readme_information()` function writes out the markup the same
 way as `install_plugin_information()` does.  The element IDs are based on
 a query string variable (&tab=...).

 It would be possible to have the new function
 (`plugin_readme_information()`) to ignore the query string and force the
 same id as `install_plugin_information()`.  Do you think this would be
 confusing for future developers?

 Or did I completely misunderstand what you said?
