There aren't any beyond "it would be nice".

It's more of an issue of someone caring enough to do the coding work to
bring the parser up to spec for HTML5 (or introduce new code to live
beside
the HTML4 parsing code).

Which, given that html5lib readily exists, would likely be a lot more work
than anyone who is interested in HTML5 handling would want to invest.

I don't think we need a new HTML5 parsing implementation only to have it in
the stdlib. That's the old sunny Java way of doing it.

I disaagree.
Having proper html parsing out of the box is part of the "batteries
included" thing.

Well, you can easily prove me wrong by implementing this.
