Comment:

 What about the markup generated by `the_chat()`? According to HTML5Doctor
 is the use of `<dl>` for marking up dialogue appropriate for HTML4 but not
 for HTML5 (http://html5doctor.com/the-dl-element/)

 In the IRC, Mark Jaquith linked to this page:
 http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/common-
 idioms.html#conversations

   "[...] authors are encouraged to mark up conversations using `p`
 elements and punctuation. Authors who need to mark the speaker for styling
 purposes are encouraged to use `span` or `b`."
