%pre.content

Was it intentional that %pre.content was defined so as to exclude IMG, but
include, as-is, A? (I remember reading in the archives months ago that IMG
might be included within the content model of PRE.) This has the curious
effect (well, curious IMO) of making this nonconforming:

<PRE><IMG SRC="foo"></PRE>

while making this conforming:

<PRE><A HREF="yowza"><IMG SRC="foo"></A></PRE>

Was there a reason behind this, was an exclusion overlooking, or
was adding IMG to %pre.content just put off?
