The HTML code underwent a significant cleanup to make sure it validates against W3C standards.  While all browsers have supported the non-validating code (e.g., custom attributes that don't start with "data-"), it a desirable goal to have the code validate as much as is possible so validation can be used as a means of detecting potential typos in the markup.
