HTML5 being a spec that builds on HTML 4.01 and real-world ways to deal with non-compliant input, I don’t object to fixes that follow the HTML5 spec.  Regarding backward compatibility, we can break it if we decide that the behavior we’re changing was a bug.  I think it’s far more useful to support BeautifoulSoup than to retain a non-useful behavior forever.
