Fair enough. I noticed pretty much every other readability plugin
failed when encountering an unclosed <hr>. It would be really nice if
every site were to use the HTML5 <article>, in which case we could
just grab that and call it a day. Ahh, if only.

There are probably pros and cons to that approach, too. I'm sure I'll
manage to hit M-r. ;)

Yep, that works fine. And I use 9.0a2 most of the time, anyway.

I'll probably end up using this a lot (over time my tolerance for
poorly designed websites has quickly approached zero), so I'll let you
know if I find any other bugs.
Anyway, really nice. I love the styling, btw -- very pleasant to read.
Thanks,
