[TYPO3-core] RFC #7984: Bug: stdWrap.crop now closes opened tags and counts chars correctly

Hi all,

thanx for your response. I have no problem with your point of view. You 
can integrate it in 4.3 or not if you like. I can cope with all the 
situations ;-)

There is no advice given in any documentation available not to crop 
HTML-markup (neither in TSRef nor in the comments). It seems to be a 
matter of knowing from experience. IMO stdWrap.crop should produce the 
same FE-output whether it processes content with or without markup. This 
was also expected by redacted user - who reported this as a bug - and 
many other people I have talked to during T3BOARD08.

Adding a new feature like sdtWrap.crop.respectHTML=1 only makes sense if 
there are users, that wants to cut tags right away. In this rare case 
stdWrap.crop.byHookOrByCrook=1 is the better choice ;-) Otherwise it 
increases the complexity of TYPO3 and can be a source of error if an 
adminstrator is not aware of this feature. IMHO 
sdtWrap.crop.respectHTML=1 turns a bug into an "configurable bug".

Greetings
Jochen
