Hrm, there is a package for the TidyLib Python wrapper though, which the 4.1
version of feedparser supports (and prefers)! So, once we upgrade, you'll be
able to use either. Hooray!
Annoyingly though, there's a TIDY_MARKUP = 0 in feedparser.py, so we'll have
to modify that (or tell users to) - it does properly check for the existence
of the Python modules though, so perhaps we could just enable it by default.
Another good reason to bring in feedparser 4.1 support for Planet 1.2. :-)
