Comparing HTML markup can be error prone and fragile. Typically we're
interested in ''semantically equivalent'' HTML; among other things, that
means that the comparison should have built-in tolerance for different
attribute and class name order.
Ideally, the assertion should also produce output which is easily human-
readable when flagging differences between two HTML strings.
Finally, it should be able to understand block delimiters.
