Yep; just point me to the SGML source.

Yipes! Could you move them back again?
CDATA declared content is PURE EVIL, and I'd like to
see <XMP> and <LISTING> pushed as far away as possible
from the other more respectable block elements.
Calling them "deprecated" is not strong enough for me.
They were "obsolete" as of May 31, and I *strongly urge* that
they stay that way until HTML 2.1, when they should
be eliminated altogether.
